Tareq Saleh, a member of the Presidential Leadership Council, has directed the governors of Taiz and Hodeidah to prepare urgent and comprehensive files detailing the immediate needs of their respective governorates. This directive comes in response to escalating military operations and the resultant humanitarian pressures.
The instruction was issued during an extensive meeting chaired by Saleh, which included Prime Minister Shaye Al-Zindani, members of the government's crisis management committee, and the governors of Taiz and Hodeidah. The discussions focused on the requirements of the Western Coast front and the current situation in both governorates, along with necessary measures for managing any emergent developments.
The meeting reviewed the critical needs that must be addressed by relevant government ministries and bodies, including Defense, Interior, Health, Oil, Planning, and Foreign Affairs. This highlights the broad scope of requirements stemming from the military escalation, extending beyond purely military concerns.
Saleh specifically instructed the governors of Taiz and Hodeidah to convene intensive meetings with the crisis management committee. Their task is to compile detailed reports outlining the urgent needs of the governorates, which will then be presented for discussion and necessary action by the committee.
Prime Minister Al-Zindani affirmed the government's full support for the Western Coast front, commending the military gains and the resilience demonstrated by the forces against the Houthi militia. He stated that the government would study all submitted needs and translate them into practical operational measures, viewing this as a national imperative linked to the ongoing conflict.
The Minister of Youth and Sports, who also chairs the crisis management committee, provided an update on the committee's readiness to address the front-line requirements, emphasizing ongoing coordination with local authorities. The governors of Taiz and Hodeidah presented an overview of their current situations and needs, confirming their commitment to preparing and submitting the comprehensive files to the government committee in the coming days.
