London - Sana
Oxfam International Charity Organization criticized the British government for allowing the export of refueling equipment by air to the Saudi regime, indicating that such equipment might be used in air strikes on Yemeni governorates.
"Britain is intensifying its support for the Saudi-led war on Yemen by increasing arms sales and refueling equipment that facilitate air strikes," the British newspaper The Guardian quoted Sam Nadel, an official in the organization, as saying.
The waiter called on the British government to stop all arms exports to the Saudi regime that could be used in its aggression against Yemen and said .. "Britain claims to support peace in Yemen, but it should immediately start ending sales of all weapons that can be used against Yemeni civilians and the exacerbation of the humanitarian crisis there." “.
Earlier this month, British ministers rejected the issue of suspending their country's arms sales to Saudi Arabia, stressing that their country makes its own decisions on arms sales and not in line with other countries' decisions, in reference to the US President Joe Biden's administration’s decision to freeze arms sales to the Saudi regime.
It is noteworthy that the Saudi aggression on Yemen, which has continued since March 2015, has caused a deterioration in the economic, living and health conditions in the country as a result of the blockade imposed by the forces of aggression on Yemeni ports and the failure to allow the entry of relief and medical aid, which has led to the largest humanitarian disaster in the world according to several UN organizations.
