The Yemeni government reiterated its support for UN Special Envoy Martin Griffiths to broker such a settlement.

He said that besides the attacks on oil tankers in the Red Sea the militia confiscates relief aid shipments that arrive for the people they impoverished by the coup they mounted in 2014 and conflict they triggered in 2015 which triggered an unprecedented humanitarian crisis in Yemen.
