No fuel vessels have been allowed to unload at Hodeidah port since Jan 3. 13 vessels carrying over 350,000 tons of fuel are currently being held off #Yemen’s coast. This means higher prices for fuel, food, & no power for health facilities.

Saudi Arabia's blockade is a main driver of the humanitarian crisis. Saudi has enforced this blockade for all 6 years of the war against Yemen’s population, by air, land and sea, and weaponizing access to food. #YemenCantWait
This consists of Saudi controlling and limiting all international and commercial flights into Sana’a airport, imposing a naval blockade and checkpoints on all shipping vessels trying to enter Yemen’s ports, and preventing land border crossings for commercial traders. #YemenCrisis
This tactic of collective punishment has proven unsuccessful in winning military victories but has created untold suffering for millions of people, and contributed to hundreds of thousands of deaths. @JoeBiden & @SecBlinken must pressure the Saudis to end the #Yemen #blockade.
