 Declaration text:

 It goes without saying that the Al-Dhalea-Sana’a road was not closed by the southern armed forces over the past years, and what happened today there is a new confirmation for the interior, the region and the world that we are dealing positively with every effort to open the crossings and secure the flow of food, medicine and fuel for humanitarian reasons, and we will continue to do so constantly.
