The Saudi-led coalition, which has been waging a deadly war on Yemen, has abducted more than 150 fishermen in the waters off the embattled port city of Hudaydah.

The Houthi-run al-Masirah TV channel reported that the kidnapping of the fishermen on 15 boats by the “aggression forces” took place southwest of the Turfa Island on Wednesday.

According to the latest report by Yemen’s Ministry of Human Rights, the Saudis have deprived over 50,000 Yemeni fishermen of their right to fish, killed dozens of them, targeted 93 fishing facilities and destroyed 4,586 boats.

Hudaydah, a lifeline for millions of Yemenis, has seen some of the heaviest fighting in the four-year Saudi aggression against the impoverished nation.
