Sana'a - Saba:
The Yemeni Parliament, in its session on Monday, approved the report of the Transport and Communications Committee regarding the performance and achievements of the General Authority for Maritime Affairs for the years 2021–2024. The session was chaired by Speaker of the Council, Yahya al-Ra'i.
The approval came following commitments from the government, represented by Deputy Minister of Transport and Public Works Yahya Al-Sayani, in addition to the Acting Chairman of the General Authority for Maritime Affairs, Zaid Al-Moshki, and several specialists in the relevant authorities. The government agreed to implement the following recommendations:
1. The Ministry of Finance is tasked with providing necessary financial support to repair, maintain, and rehabilitate the marine communications system at the Authority's branch in Al-Hodeida province.

3. The provision of financial support to implement the Authority's projects, including ten projects totaling 196,550,000 riyals, as the Authority lacks resources due to the ongoing siege and aggression against the country.
In a related development, the Parliament also approved the report of the Transport and Communications Committee on the performance and achievements of the General Authority for Regulating Land Transport Affairs for the years 2021–2023.
