Discussion on Humanitarian Access in Taiz

They said, “You are besieging Taiz.”

We have not besieged Taiz.

We prevent weapons from entering these groups

that follow the Saudi enemy. Whoever wants to, there is only

a very short distance to the

nearest entrance to the city.

Go and see for yourself.

Come and bring in whatever you want,

flour, wheat, rice,

beans, whatever you want.

Bring in as much food as you want,

even for the Saudi enemy’s reinforcements.

We provide them with food because we act

according to the Quran: “They give food,

despite loving it, to the needy,

the orphan, and the captive.” By God, if they had gained

control, they would have strangled

us and denied us everything.

But we do not deny them

food or medicine.

We prevent the weapons they want to kill

the children of

the people with. You saw it with your own eyes.

Whoever has not seen it, let them see it.

What happened at the entrance to Taiz?

A truck carrying flour.

And what was inside this flour?

There was ammunition inside the flour,

weapons inside it, concubines inside it.

Is this food? Is this medicine

for the people of Taiz?

Bring it in for the people of Taiz.

They put weapons in the middle of it in order to

to besiege them.

Then we'd say that's it, no more entry.

No, we'll let food in. We ourselves will let food in.

By God, if the merchant

doesn't come to buy and enter,

we'll let him in ourselves.

They are the ones preventing entry and exit.

When they opened and called,

they were the ones preventing entry

and exit from Al- Qasr Roundabout.

As for our side, it's open, and we always declare it open.
