Health Spokesman: US-Saudi Aggression Deliberately Double Suffering of Yemeni People Amid UN’s Silence

The spokesman for the Ministry of Health confirmed that the US-Saudi aggression is deliberately doubling the suffering of the Yemeni people amid UN’s silence.

In his statement to Almasirah, Dr. Anis Al-Asbahi said that the aggression’s repudiation of the implementation of the UN-sponsored truce is a crime that has humanitarian repercussions.

He pointed to the recent death of 12 patients who were registered to travel for treatment abroad, stressing that two flights per week, as stipulated in the truce agreement, are not enough to save patients’ lives.

Dr. Al-Asbahi confirmed that 30,000 patients urgently need to travel abroad to receive treatment.

The health spokesman pointed out that the health sector needs to modernize medical equipment and needs some materials and supplies to be entered through Sana’a International airport.
