IFP Editorial Staff

April 19, 2022

The aggressor coalition in Yemen has not allowed any planes to fly to Sanaa since the ceasefire was implemented, and it is creating obstacles for ships carrying fuel to the port of al-Ḥudaydah, Abdul-Salam stated.

The coalition has also violated the ceasefire militarily with nine airstrikes by its spy planes and three advances by its mercenaries in Ma’rib, he added.

A United Nations-brokered ceasefire went into force in Yemen on April 2 which demands the removal of the Saudi siege of Yemen. The truce was announced after Yemeni popular forces declared a unilateral three-day pause in retaliatory strikes against targets in Saudi Arabia.

The Saudi-led war on Yemen has killed tens of thousands, injuring many more. Millions of Yemenis have been internally displaced.

The United Nation has described the situation of Yemen as the worst humanitarian catastrophe in the world.

The bombings happened outside a boys’ school in a Shia district of Kabul and killed dozens of children. Many more were wounded in the blasts.

No group has yet claimed the terrorist attack but the Daesh terror group has taken the responsibility for similar incidents in the past.

Oji noted that if Iran manages to cut fuel consumption by half in different sectors, it will be able to earn $150 billion annually.

He noted that the Iranian government pays $80 billion each year in fuel subsidies.

Oji underlined that last year, Tehran’s industries and power plants did not consume a single liter of fuel oil (mazut).

He was speaking on Tuesday and at a ceremony in which the Oil Ministry and Tehran’s Municipality signed a memorandum of understanding.

The oil minister voiced hope that following the signing of the MoU and the use of the capabilities of knowledge-based companies, energy consumption will be reduced and the saved energy will generate more revenues for Iran through exports and injection of the revenues into the country’s value chain.

Iran has made long strides in pressing ahead with its crude sales despite the US sanctions that have targeted its oil industry.

The administration of President Ebrahim Raisi says the Iranian oil sales are steadily increasing despite those bans and the revenues are returning to the country.

This year’s Hajj will commence from the evening of Thursday, 7th of July and will continue till the evening of 12th of July.

He said now the Iranian Embassy’s staffers are ready to offer services to “dear Iranian nationals”.

Meanwhile, France declared that it has reopened its embassy in the Ukrainian capital Kiev with Spain and Italy following suit. All these countries closed their embassies in Kiev after the security situation deteriorated in Ukraine following the Russian attack on the country. Kiev is not threatened by the Russian attack.

Russia withdrew its troops from the areas close to the Ukrainian capital and the Russian Army is now focused on the eastern parts of Ukraine.

Russia said its military operation is aimed at demilitarizing Ukraine, which it sees as a threat due to Kiev’s close ties to NATO and the West.

The group’s deputy Spokesman Anamollah Samangani, in a tweet, said Taliban Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi and his accompanying delegation will discuss the situation of Afghan migrants and prisoners in Iran.

Samangani added that Muttaqi held a phone call with Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir Abdollahian on Monday, during which both sides agreed that Iran and Afghanistan will not allow biased groups to drive a wedge between the people of the two countries through propaganda, preaching hate and pessimism.

It follows the recent attacks on the venues of Iran’s embassy and consulate general in Kabul and Herat by mobs.

The Taliban official also thanked Iran for hosting Afghan refugees under difficult conditions and reiterated Afghanistan’s will to expand relations and cooperation with Iran.
