Sana'a - SABA:
Minister of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates Jamal Amer and Minister of Health and Environment Dr. Ali Al-Shibani met today with Abdullah Al-Wardat, Director of Partnerships with Donor Countries at the World Food Programme (WFP) in Rome and High-Level Envoy to Yemen.
The meeting, attended by Deputy Foreign Minister for International Cooperation Ambassador Ismail Al-Mutawakel, saw Minister Amer welcome the envoy while stressing that the Foreign Ministry has facilitated the work of WFP's Sana'a office in the past. However, he noted that the office "unfortunately created problems for itself by reneging on agreements."
Amer emphasized the government's commitment to ensuring WFP's operations in Yemen align with established standards and resolving pending issues to alleviate the humanitarian suffering caused by aggression and blockade.
For his part, Health Minister Al-Shibani highlighted a recent decline in strategic partnership with WFP, despite its critical role in life-saving projects across Yemen's governorates.
Deputy Minister Al-Mutawakel addressed obstacles in the relationship with WFP's Sana'a office, affirming the Foreign Ministry's readiness to discuss and resolve outstanding matters to strengthen cooperation.
Envoy Al-Wardat reiterated that his mission is purely humanitarian and apolitical, tasked by WFP leadership to resolve all pending issues in collaboration with Yemeni authorities to serve the Yemeni people

Yemen : "After Reports of Targeting"… Houthis Deny Assassination of the Group's Chief of Staff
Hours after Israeli media confirmed the targeting of the Chief of Staff of the Houthi militia forces in Yemen in an Israeli airstrike, the militia denied the accuracy of these claims. Ahmed Al-Rahwi, head of the Houthi-affiliated government in Yemen, stated: "What the Zionist enemy has promoted about the targeting of Chief of Staff Major General Mohammad Al-Ghamari is baseless and completely false." Attempt to Target Al-Ghamari Al-Rahwi added—according to "26 September," the website affiliated with the Yemeni group's Ministry of Defense—that "defending the Israeli enemy and its daily crimes against the Palestinian people, as well as its blatant aggression against Iran by members of the nation, is unacceptable." On Saturday evening, Channel 12 in Israel reported: "The Israeli Air Force attempted to assassinate the Houthi group's Chief of Staff in Yemen, Mohammad Al-Ghamari," without revealing the outcome of the operation. Additionally, an Israeli military official stated on Sunday that Israel still has a large list of targets in Iran that it has not yet struck, confirming that the attacks also targeted the military commander of the Yemeni Houthis last night. Missile Strikes on Israel On Sunday, the Houthis announced that they had launched several missiles toward Israel, while Tel Aviv carried out strikes on Iran, which responded with salvos of missiles. In a statement, the Houthis confirmed "the execution of a military operation targeting sensitive enemy sites in the occupied Jaffa area" and the use of "several hypersonic ballistic missiles of the 'Palestine-2' type at various intervals over the past 24 hours."
