Security Media Center at the Ministry of Interior reported on Friday
that Saudi Authorities released four Yemeni fishermen with their fishing
boat following detention of approximately 24 days. Further it stated
that Eritrean authorities also released 38 Yemeni fishermen who had
previously been detained for ten days.
 
Meanwhile, official sources said that enormous numbers of Yemeni
fishermen were exposed to detentions by Saudi and Eritrean authorities
while they were fishing in the international waters. "They were released
following the detention, but most of their fishing boats were
confiscated," the sources added.
 
Following the recent crackdown by Eritrean authorities the Yemeni
government officially protested to what it called arrest without any
justification.
 
Chairman of the Fishermen Cooperative Union (FCC) based in Al-Mukalla of
Hadramout province said that Yemeni fishermen were struggling attack
from international coalition forces off Yemen's coast, Somali pirates
and Saudi or Eritrea's detention.
 
Large numbers of Yemeni fishers made trips through the southern Red Sea,
frequently fishing in Eritrea and Somali's waters, a regional experts
said, adding that Eritreans consume very little fish and, therefore,
most fish is exported and currently sold in Yemen.
 
Yemeni fishermen and fish exporters face a lot of problems including
kidnapping, piracy and fish exports not being allowed into Saudi
markets.
