Jeddah - Saba
The General Secretariat of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation expressed its strong condemnation of the piracy and kidnapping perpetrated by the Houthi militia, against the civilian ship "Rawabi", carrying the flag of the United Arab Emirates, which was loaded with equipment for the Saudi field hospital.

The organization considered this attack a criminal act that would obstruct the freedom of maritime and commercial navigation guaranteed by international laws and treaties, and lead to the cessation of sending humanitarian and relief aid to the Yemeni people, demanding immediate release of the ship.
