Yemen's Minister of Water and Environment has warned the Houthi militia's constant gaming of the decaying FSO oil tanker's serious issue will lead the world into an unprecedented environmental and humanitarian disaster.

Tawfik Alsharjabi told Saba that he Houthi militia's "recurrent rejection of UN proposals" to maintain the rusting giant ship "shows that they use the floating oil storage facility as a tool for political extortion" against the Yemeni government and the world. He said the militia are totally "indifferent to the dangerous environmental and humanitarian consequences that will affect seven million people and the ecological system" in the Red Sea should the vessel start to leakage its over million oil barrel cargo or explode.
