The Minister of Culture, Abdullah Ahmed Al-Kibsi, directed the Historic Cities Authority to work quickly to restore and repair the collapsed parts of the historic Hanan Bridge in the city of Jableh.

The Minister of Culture, Abdullah Ahmed Al-Kibsi, said that the historical city of Jableh has a scientific and historical status that requires care and attention as it is one of the most important historical cities in Yemen.

The rains led to the collapse of side parts of the historic Hanan Bridge, which connects the city with the rest of the villages and isolation surrounding the city of Jableh.

The history of the Hanan Bridge dates back to the era of Queen Arwa bint Ahmed Al-Sulayhi, who took her residence in a palace built by her husband in a fort in Jableh.
