The UN has been conducting frequent visits to the port and has found no indications that prove Saudi Arabia's allegations.

The United Nations Mission to support the Hudaydah Agreement stated that the UNMHA patrol made its weekly visit this evening to the Salif Port and its vicinities and confirmed that its team inspected the Rawabi ship from a distance and communicated with its corresponding crew members.

In a tweet, UNMHA noted that "no indication of militarization was observed in the areas patrolled."

Furthermore, the Yemeni Ministry of Transport in the Sanaa government said the UN mission team visited the ports of Salif and Ras Isa in the governorate of Al-Hudaydah. The Salif port is subject to ongoing visits by the UN and it abides by all international marine codes of practice and standards, according to its Deputy Director, Hussein Fareh.

Fareh contended that the coalition of aggression's allegations are sheer fabrications, and the port is void of any armed manifestations, military barracks, warehouses for arms assembly, or launching gunboats. 

YRSPC slashes Saudi allegations

The Yemeni Red Sea Ports Corporation (YRSPC) refuted Saudi allegations that Al-Hudaydah port is used as a base for launching military actions.

In a statement, YRSPC expressed its profound regret "for the recurring scenario whereby the Saudi coalition and its tools utilize propaganda to fabricate a pretext aimed at legitimizing targeting Al-Hudaydah port as part of its hostile policy against the Yemeni people." 

The statement added that "Al-Hudaydah port is subjected to recurrent UN visits and complies with all international marine requirements and codes”, stressing that "the port is vacant of any military installations or arms depots."

“Imminent Saudi-led coalition’s attack on the port will lead to catastrophic humanitarian disaster", according to the statement.

The statement went on to say that the Saudi-led coalition’s threat to assault Al-Hudaydah port will also have catastrophic outcomes on the region.

The Yemeni Red Sea Ports Corporation has repeated its appeal to the international community to alleviate the human suffering that the Yemenis have been facing for the past 7 years.

Saudi makes fake Al-Hudaydah propaganda video 

The Saudi coalition published scenes claiming to be showing scenes from the site of assembling and installing ballistic missiles in the port of Al-Hudaydah that turned out to be footage extracted from a 2009 American documentary film about the US invasion of Iraq.

The scenes were cut from the "Severe Clear" documentary, specifically an hour, nine minutes, and 54 seconds after its beginning.

"The farcical attempts to justify the coalition of aggression's targeting of Yemeni ports are nothing more than a cheap cinematic move that shows the world the disgraceful failure that Saudi Arabia is experiencing," the Ministry of Transport of the Sanaa government said in a statement. 

Moreover, the head of the Sanaa negotiation delegation Mohamad Abdulsalam commented on the Saudi coalition spokesperson Turki Al-Maliki's statements justifying the scandal of extracting movie scenes and claiming it showed missiles in the Yemeni port of Al-Hudaydah.

Abdulsalam described Al-Maliki's statements as "laughable and pathetic."
