DUBAI: The Yemeni oil ministry said the Houthi militia targeted an oil pipeline in Marib’s Safar oil field, east of Yemen, state news agency SPA reported on Sunday.

The ministry said the attack is considered a crime and an affirmation to how Houthis are seeking to destroy all Yemeni people’s capabilities. It also proves how distant the militia is from national and human values, the ministry added.

The ministry called on all political actors in the country and abroad to speed up the intervention, put an end to the existence of the Iranian-backed militia and take appropriate measures to ensure the safety of the remaining facilities that the Yemeni people possess.

The state-run Safer oil company owns one of the main pipelines of Yemen, which have been a frequent target of attacks
