The Houthis' move is a sabotage act will result in ruining the pipeline and an environmental disaster.

The Ministry of Oil stated that it reserves its legal right to take all legal procedures to stop such sabotage action. The Ministry also stated that it has been seeking to resume all oil production and operations in different oil sectors which have ceased to operate due to Houthi coup.

The meeting expressed thanks to local authority leadership in Marib province headed by the governor Maj. General Sultan Al-Erradah for significant efforts have been made to maintain oil facilities as safe and operational.
