Marib (Debriefer) - A Yemeni tribal mediation has successfully led oil and gas trucks to resume their trip to the northeastern city of Marib, after main supply route to the oil-rich city had been blocked for one week.
Last week, armed tribesmen from Al Samra Tribe in Abeeda Valley held back fuel lorries heading from Mukalla and Safer company to supply Marib's energy plants.
The gunmen demanded Marib local authorities to release a fellow tribesman reportedly jailed over charges of sabotage acts.
Following the tribal mediation, Abeeda Tribes allowed tens of detained trucks access to Marib city, local sources said, after the fellow tribesman was released.
