Victories achieved by the Saudi Arabia-led Arab coalition confirmed that it took the right decision when responding to the call of the legitimate government to save the Yemeni people from the Houthi militias and ousted Saleh group, Dr Sultan bin Ahmed Sultan Al Jaber, Minister of State and Chairman of the Board of the National Media Council, has said.
In an article 'On the liberation of Bab Al Mandab', published by Asharq Al Awsat newspaper, Al Jaber said that when the Houthi militia backed by Iran ignored the political choices of the Yemeni people and tried to remove the internationally-recognised legitimate government through coup, the Arab coalition, in which the UAE is participating, responded out of its moral duty and historical and religious considerations shared with the Arab brothers in Yemen.
Meanwhile, the coalition denied a US Navy report that aid to Yemen is being slowed by its shipping procesures. Coalition spokesman Brigadier General Ahmed Al Asseri denied warships had sent any messages aimed at deterring vessels from docking. He said the coalition was asking vessels to submit to inspection by its warships to check for possible attempts to smuggle weapons to Houthis.
"There are a lot of ships that want to go to the port without clearance, he said, adding from the start of the campaign in March I made it clear that vessels had to contact us for inspection in line with our maritime interdiction'.
"We are saying to the ships, please go through the process ... for sure they will have a clearance." - Wam, Reuters
