Houthis seize scores of goods carriers in Dhamar

[31/03/2017 05:55]

Dhamar (Saba)-The Houthis-Saleh Militias seized on Friday scores of carriers transferring goods from Aden Port and al-Wadea'a crossing, demanding their owners to pay custom duties.

A local source in the city of Dhamar told the Yemeni News Agency (Saba) that the carriers are still seized in the main road of the city, in the front of the government compound run by the militias.

The seizure of the goods carriers came days after the militias created new offices for customs clearance at entries of Dhamar located in the south of Sana'a.

The Houthi-Saleh Militias do best to obtain new resources after the legitimate government moved the Central Bank of Yemen to the temporary capital of Aden and took measures to dry up financial resources of the Houthis.
