ADEN - SABA
Yemen's Information Minister said the Houthi militia's making up of a new fuel crisis in the country's hijacked capital, Sana'a, and elsewhere reflects the militia's commitment to stay the course of profiteering from the suffering of the people.
Muammar al-Eryani told Saba said fuel ships continue to arrive in the militia-controlled Red Sea port of Hodeidah two cargo lots a week, yet the terrorist militia continue to tamper with the prices of fuel.

"The number of fuel ships that offloaded their cargo in Hodeidah port from 1st April until 8th May are 10 ships laden with a total of 268,911 metric tons of oil and two other ships laden with 60,000 metric tons of diesel," he said. He said this quantity "offers three month worth of surplus fuel above the actually needed quantity in the Houthi militia's areas of control."

The minister called on the UN and US envoys to condemn the terrorist militia's exercises that make the wretched conditions of millions of Yemenis even worse.

He also called for compelling the militia to dedicate the port revenues for paying civil servants.
