Al-Fasht, Dhu-AlQa'dah 8, 1438, Jul 31, 2017, SPA -- King Salman for Relief and Humanitarian Action Center has provided fresh food aid to Al-Fasht and Balkan islands, close to the Midi coast of Hajjah province, in north-west Yemen, including essential food and date. The aid comes as a continuation of previous relief campaigns for the people of the two islands. This program is an extension of as many as 139 programs implemented by the Center in all governorates of Yemen with the participation of 84 partners, both national and local. Yemeni island of Al-Fasht is located near the port of Midi on the Red Sea and inhabited by dozens of Yemeni citizens. They have been deprived by the pro-coup militias of their only occupation, which is fishing, following planting thousands of sea mines on the Yemeni coasts, a fact that led to the deterioration of their lives. -- SPA 17:31 LOCAL TIME 14:31 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w457111
