Sana'a – 30 September 2025

The Humanitarian Operations Coordination Center (HOCC) issued a decision today designating (13) entities, (9) persons, and (2) assets linked to the U.S. as perpetrators of prohibition of the export of U.S. Crude Oil Decision No (PD-05-25-001). They have been included in the (PAYAIS) sanctions list. The designation was made due to their involvement in facilitating the export, re-export, transport, loading, purchase, or sale of U.S. crude oil (HS Code 2709.00), directly or indirectly, from U.S. ports. This includes ship-to-ship (STS) transfers - whether wholly or partially – and through third parties. This constitutes a violation of Decision No. (PD-05-25-001) concerning the prohibition of U.S. crude oil exports, which entered into force on 17 May 2025 at 00:01 Sana’a local time, corresponding to 16 May 2025 at 21:01 UTC. 

The Executive Director of the HOCC affirmed that "the HOCC will employ all available means and instruments to confront any hostile measures taken by any State or group against the Republic of Yemen, in accordance with the applicable laws and relevant regulations". He further emphasized that "the Republic of Yemen will never tolerate any act that undermines its sovereignty, security, or stability, and will exercise its legitimate right to apply the principle of reciprocity".
