The Deputy Foreign Minister in the Sanaa government, Hussein Al-Ezzi, affirmed that "the siege of the Yemeni people impedes the extension of the armistice."

In a tweet, Al-Ezzi said that "the siege of the Yemeni people hinders the extension," denouncing the blockade against the Yemeni people, which he considered "a war crime and a crime against humanity."

Al-Ezzi considered as shameful that "the role of Western governments and the United Nations has become merely to regulate the blockade and legitimize its use as a military and negotiating weapon." 

He added, "They have become governed by the carrot of the Gulf and the stick of the US, and they have nothing to do with the laws; this is happening for the first time in history."

محاصرة الشعب اليمني تعيق التمديد
إن الحصار جريمة حرب وجريمة ضدالإنسانية ومن العار أن يصبح دور الحكومات الغربية والأمم المتحدة هو فقط تنظيم الحصار وشرعنة إستعماله كسلاح عسكري وتفاوضي
لقد أصبحوا محكومين بجزرة الخليج وعصا أمريكا ولا علاقة لهم بالقوانين وهذا يحدث لأول مرة في التاريخ

On Monday, the Supreme Political Council in Yemen stressed the need to completely resume operations in Sanaa International Airport and the port of Al-Hudaydah.

"The extension of the truce requires a commitment to pay the salaries of all employees and the resumption of all the services cut off by the Saudi-led coalition to increase the suffering of the Yemeni people," the Sanaa government said.

Sanaa also underlined that the other parties and the United Nations did not commit to bridging the gap in the salaries of the employees and retirees.

The truce which was announced between Yemen and Saudi Arabia has come into effect on April 2, and Grundberg announced that "under this armistice, all offensive military operations, by land, air, and sea, will cease."

On June 2, Grundberg announced that the Sanaa government and the Saudi coalition responded positively to the UN proposal to renew the truce for an additional two months. 

A few days ago, the head of the Sanaa government delegation, negotiator Muhammad Abdul Salam, said that the armistice agreement is about to end, noting that "the aggression countries dealt with it in a manner that reflects recklessness and arrogance."
