He added that the militias worked on closing outlets and international organizations' offices in Yemen and attacked and seized 65 ships, 124 relief trucks and 628 shipments in stark violations of humanitarian activity's agreements.

The center- despite all violations targeting aids it provides and other working teams- does not hesitate to provide aid, said al-Rabi'ah.
