Saudi offers to allow fuel ships in Yemen peace proposal, after CNN investigation exposes toll of blockade
CNN
Saudi Arabia announced on Monday an initiative to end Yemen's conflict and begin an immediate ceasefire with Iran-backed Houthi rebels.
This proposal follows a recent CNN investigation which revealed that not a single oil tanker has been able to dock in the Houthi-controlled port of Hodeidah this year because of the blockade enforced by Saudi warships. CNN's investigation triggered calls from the UN Yemen Envoy Martin Griffiths and WFP Chief David Beasley for Saudi Arabia to lift its blockade and allow fuel into the country. Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan told Saudi State-TV on Monday that the initiative aimed to "end the conflict" in Yemen and would look to implement a countrywide ceasefire, open Sanaa airport and allow ships carrying oil to enter the Hodeidah port.More Related News
