Yemeni Prime Minister Moeen Abdulmalek accused on Tuesday Qatar of spreading chaos in his country, saying it was backing the Iran-aligned Houthi militias.

He said that since the eruption of the conflict in Yemen, Doha has been supplying the Houthis with money and weapons and has given them access to media.

Qatar has worked on destabilizing Yemen, he added from Egypt where he is on an official visit.

Since Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Egypt and Bahrain announced their diplomatic and economic boycott of Qatar, Doha’s policy has become clear, he continued.

Qatar now openly supports the Houthis and is working on undermining the legitimate Yemeni government and seeking to thwart efforts to restore the state, said the PM.

Egyptian President Abdul Fattah al-Sisi had on Monday received Abdulmalek in Cairo for talks.

Yemeni Minister of Information, Culture and Tourism Moammar Al-Eryani commended the Saudi Development and Reconstruction Program for Yemen (SDRPY) for its substantial contributions to development across various sectors and governorates after visiting several of its projects and initiatives in Socotra Governorate.
Al-Eryani emphasized that SDRPY's projects in Yemen represent more than mere development initiatives; they symbolize the genuine brotherhood and unwavering support extended by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia under the leadership of Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, SPA reported.

During his visit to Qalansiyah District, Al-Eryani inspected several projects undertaken by SDRPY, including a significant initiative to establish a new power station. The project is designed to boost electricity generation capacity in Socotra, ensure reliable and sustainable electricity supply, enhance the resilience of the power infrastructure to withstand challenging weather conditions, such as seasonal cyclones, and improve the skills and expertise of local operators through comprehensive training programs in operation and maintenance.
The project involves the installation of two powerful 1.46-megawatt generators, which will be seamlessly integrated into the existing public electricity grid.
Al-Eryani also visited the Qalansiyah model school, a state-of-the-art facility equipped with science and computer labs, as well as sports courts for volleyball and basketball. The school aims to enhance students' academic performance while fostering a well-rounded education by supporting extracurricular activities.
Al-Eryani emphasized the significant economic support provided by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to Yemen, amounting to $500 million. This aid is crucial for strengthening the Yemeni government's budget, supporting the Central Bank of Yemen, and ultimately achieving stability and prosperity for the Yemeni people.
Al-Eryani commended the SDRPY for its impactful projects in Socotra covering key sectors such as infrastructure, transport, healthcare, economic development, and education.
The SDRPY has implemented 263 development projects and initiatives in various Yemeni governorates across eight vital sectors: education, health, water, energy, transportation, agriculture and fisheries, government capacity building, and development programs.
