Yemen Air Travel Faces Severe Disruptions
A report on the humanitarian situation in Yemen indicates that the air blockade imposed since 2015 on Sana'a Airport has led to a significant deterioration in the air transport sector, the destruction of infrastructure, and financial losses exceeding $5 billion. This has resulted in the complete suspension of flights, with airports becoming targets for bombing, leading to the death and impairment of millions of civilians. Additionally, travel restrictions have caused total isolation for patients, especially those with incurable diseases, and prevented more than eight thousand pilgrims from performing Hajj. This comes amid a collapsing healthcare system, rising land travel costs, and international calls to lift restrictions and reopen airports to international flights.
