"The humanitarian situation of Hodeidis no longer tolerates more violations and creating obstacles before arrival of humanitarian assistances and medical trucks, which requires quick arrival to needy people, especially under eruption of the epidemic at this governorate and others," said Fath to Saba on Sunday.

He denounces militias' continuous violations against citizens and banning the government from providing medical and relief services to the people at militias held governorate, a matter complicated of the people's suffering. He labeled these violations as immoral crimes must be denounced by all international organizations and the international community.

He shouldered the rebel militias full responsibility on deterioration of humanitarian conditions in Yemen and contribution of erupting cholera epidemic after selling the medicines at black markets and seizing the trucks carrying medicines.

Minister Fath called on the UN Humanitarian Coordinator in Yemeni Jamie McGoldrick, the World Health Organization, Doctors without Chains and all related organizations to denounce these acts and react responsibly.

He is surprised over the silence of the UN Humanitarian Coordinator on humanitarian and relief continuous violations committed by the militias.
