The Yemeni Petroleum Company (YPC)’s employees held the United Nations responsible for for deteriorating humanitarian situation in Yemen due its complicity with the US-Saudi-UAE aggression coalition in the continued maritime piracy on ships carrying oil derivatives .

In a statement issued during a protest sit in front of the United Nations office in Sana’a, on Monday, the YPC  warned that the situation in Yemen is deteriorating, which heralds the largest humanitarian disaster, as a result of the continued detention of fuel ships by the Saudi-led aggression forces.

The company’ statement  confirmed that “the US-Saudi-Emirati coalition continues to hold two oil ships with a total tonnage of 56,489 tons of gasoline and diesel, in addition to other ships that have been held for more than two months.”

The statement indicated that these ships had completed the examination and audit procedures through the mechanism of the Verification and Inspection Mission in Djibouti, and obtained UN permits.

The company added that the continuation of maritime piracy and its catastrophic repercussions were not matched by any serious and tangible action by the United Nations, as it is the international body concerned with facilitating the entry of imports of basic goods.
