Communications services on Monday have been cut off in several areas of Saada province, northern Yemen, due to Saudi-led coalition’s continual bombing of telecommunications towers, Al-Masirah News Channel reported citing local sources.
The sources confirmed that the continuous targeting of communications networks cut off services to several areas in the province.
According to the sources, the coalition fighter jets hit the communications network in Al-Abdin area, south of Saada city two times, and targeted the communications network in Al-Safra’a district in the same province with two airstrikes.
The Ministry of Telecommunications and Information Technology condemned the targeting of the communications networks, stations and towers by the Saudi aggression.
Meanwhile, the Ministry said in a statement on Sunday that “targeting communications networks reveals the ugliness of the aggression and its malicious criminal goals against Yemeni people and their capabilities, and deprives them of necessary services.”
It added that the aggression’s targeting of telecommunications services and facilities deprives tens of thousands of citizens of basic telecommunications services.
The ministry6held the countries of the aggression, led by the US, responsible for targeting telecommunication facilities and the consequences thereof.
At the same time, it denounced the silence of the United Nations and the international community on the crimes of aggression and its persistence in killing civilians and destroying infrastructure.
