Dubai: A ship, carrying 5,500 tonnes of flour, docked in Hodeidah port on Sunday, local officials said.
The Coalition had earlier closed access after Saudi Arabia intercepted a missile fired towards its capital Riyadh by the Al Houthi militia, which has used the port to smuggle weapons.
The delivery is the first aid to arrive through Hodeidah port after the coalition allowed a flight carrying humanitarian aid workers to Sana’a on Saturday to help improve living conditions for ordinary Yemenis.
“The ship is 106 metres long and carries 5,500 tonnes of flour,” one of the Yemeni officials said.
