US welcomes Arab coalition decision to reopen Sanaa Airport

The US has welcomed the decision made by the Arab Coalition to Support Legitimacy in Yemen on reopening the port of Hodeida and Sana’a Airport to receive relief and humanitarian aid for the Yemeni people.

The agency quoted a White House press statement as saying that the implementation of the measures announced will ensure the arrival of relief and humanitarian materials to the Yemeni people, and enable relief organisations to carry out their basic work in this regard.

The US press release also reiterated the US support of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the GCC member states against the aggression of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards, flagrant Iranian violations of international law and the Tehran support of Al-Houthi rebels to target the Kingdom with missile systems that did not exist in Yemen before the conflict.

It called on the international community to take the necessary steps to hold the Iranian regime accountable for its repeated violations of UN Security Council Resolutions 2216 and 2231 and the use of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard the serious humanitarian crisis in Yemen to achieve its regional ambitions.
