In statement to the Yemeni News Agency (Saba) Fatah said" Yemeni people have to receive Ramadan for the fourth successive year while the humanitarian ordeal is increasingly exacerbating due to the siege the Houthi militia has continued to impose on several provinces, denying relief aids access to those provinces; further worsening the humanitarian situation".
