Press Release Issued by Ministry of Yemeni Telecommunications on Subsubmarine Cables
[26/ December/2023]
SANA'A December 26. 2023 (Saba) - The Ministry of Telecommunications and Information Technology (MTIT) disclaims what is published by social media and other media, particularly those related to the Zionist enemy, about the so-called threats against the Submarine Cables that cross Bab al-Mandeb in the Red Sea in Yemen.

The approach of the Government of Yemen (GoY), through the MTIT, is to focus on building and developing the telecom and Internet services, and expanding the range of services through the licensed telecom institutions and companies.

The MTIT endeavors to overcome challenges and difficulties and move on to modern technology and new generations of telecom and Internet services.

The MTIT continues its development steps toward digital transformation, contributing to advancing all aspects of the individuals and the society in Yemen at large.

The MTIT works based on its national vision and strategy and continues - currently and in the future - to build regional and international partnerships, through Yemeni Telecom’s contribution to the development of its mutual interest with its partners, including projects on the Submarine Cables, regional data centers, which contribute to preserving the Yemeni rights and sovereignty.

Yemeni Telecom confirms its pivotal role in continuously building and developing the telecom and Internet network systems, at the regional & international levels, which are provided via the Submarine Cables that pass through the territorial waters of Yemen.

The MTIT continues its endeavors to facilitate and implement projects on the Submarine Cables in the territorial waters of Yemen, including those projects that the Republic of Yemen has contributed through the Yemen International Telecommunications Company (TeleYemen).

Yemeni Telecom emphasizes that it is keen to keep the telecom submarine cables away from any possible risks and the decision by Yemen in Sana’a to ban the passage of any ships belonging to the Israeli enemy does not pertain to the ships of those corporations licensed .

The MTIT also emphasizes that all ships executing the works of the submarine cables must obtain the necessary permits and approvals from the Yemeni Marine Affairs Authority- Sana’a.
