Yemen's Foreign Ministry has issued a directive instructing American and British nationals employed by the United Nations and humanitarian entities in the capital, Sanaa, to evacuate the country within a month.

This mandate was conveyed to Peter Hawkins, the UN's acting humanitarian coordinator in Yemen, by the Ministry in a letter on Wednesday. The decision comes in the aftermath of the US and UK's new round of military strikes in Yemen in support of Israeli ships in the Read Sea.

"The ministry ... would like to stress that you must inform officials and workers with US and British citizenships to prepare to leave the country within 30 days," the letter said.

The letter additionally directed foreign organizations operating in Yemen to refrain from employing American and British citizens for their activities within the country. Mohammed Abdulsalam, the spokesperson for Ansar Allah, confirmed the letter to Reuters.

In a statement, the US embassy acknowledged reports regarding the letter but clarified that it could not speak on behalf of the UN or humanitarian organizations in Yemen regarding any communication they may have received from the government.

Similarly, the British embassy mentioned that its staff had not received evacuation instructions yet. The embassy emphasized its ongoing communication with the UN on this matter.

On Monday, Al Mayadeen's correspondent in Yemen reported that a new US-UK air aggression targeted several areas in the Yemeni capital, Sanaa, and its surroundings. 

Reports revealed that the aggression focused on al-Dailami Air Base, located north of Sanaa, and al-Hafa Camp to the east, with a total of seven raids.
