Houthi militias destroy commercial truck in Hodeidah, violating Stockholm Agreement

The Houthi militia continued to carry out its ongoing
violations of the truce in the Yemeni province of Hodeidah. A commercial truck
was destroyed in the Tahita district in southern Hodeidah, marking a new
development in the strategy of the Iranian-backed militia, which is indiscriminately
targeting residential neighborhoods in the province, causing civilian
casualties, including children and women, as well as damaging homes and public
property.
The militia targeted the truck that was carrying household
items on a dirt road in Tahita, striking it with a mortar shell, which resulted
in the destruction of the truck and seriously injured the driver.
Meanwhile, Yemeni Information Minister Muammar al-Iryani
said that the Houthis have killed the hope of the Stockholm Agreement for the
war-torn people of Yemen, stressing that the militia continued its
Iranian-backed project and used the air force to target the Yemeni president's
headquarters in Aden and invade the provinces one by one, which required
intervention by the coalition countries led by Saudi Arabia.
During his meeting with British Labour MP Graham Jones, Iryani
reviewed the government's vision and stance on unilateral withdrawals through
which the Houthis tried to mislead the international community. He also
stressed the government’s firm and permanent position that restores state
institutions and ends the suffering of the Yemeni people.
International community is failing
Iryani explained that the international community is too
lenient in dealing with the militia, the danger posed by the Houthis exceeding
Yemen’s boundaries and threatening the region, the corridors of navigation, and
international peace and security. What happened recently with the Houthis
targeting oil pipelines and tankers is the best proof.
The minister pointed out the Houthis’ various violations
since the signing of the Stockholm Agreement, including preventing the arrival
of food aid to a number of provinces and disrupting food outflows in the Red
Sea mills seven months ago, to the extent of targeting the mills with missiles
and destrying part of the food stock. Meanwhile, the World Food Program has
accused the militia of confiscating and stealing relief materials.
Iryani praised the role of the Saudi-led coalition to
support legitimacy in Yemen and its continuous support for the process of
restoring state institutions and ending the threat posed by the Houthis against
Yemen's security. He stressed that the humanitarian situation would be worse without
this support, which also includes humanitarian, educational, health and fuel
aid, as well as supporting the country’s cash reserves in order to stop the
deterioration of the currency.
