State Department says life-saving wheat headed for Yemen won’t go to waste and US may redirect ship after CNN reporting
By MJ Lee Verified, Jennifer Hansler Verified| KFJX-TV (Pittsburg, KS) Verified (CNN) — The State Department said Thursday that the life-saving wheat aboard a carrier ship sailing toward southern Yemen will not go to waste, as it responded to CNN’s reporting that the Trump administration’s recent cuts to humanitarian funding could result in the wheat rotting or being pillaged once it arrived at the port of Aden.
A ship full of lifesaving wheat is sailing towards Yemen. When it arrives next month, it may rot or be pillaged
By MJ Lee Verified| CNN Verified Washington CNN — A merchant ship full of wheat set sail from Oregon earlier this month, headed towards the port of Aden in Yemen. But when that carrier eventually arrives at its intended destination in mid-May, there will be no one authorized to receive the wheat, store it and ensure that it gets distributed to the people of southern Yemen, many of whom are in desperate need for food. Barring an intervention by the Trump administration, the wheat will likely rot at the port or be pillaged.
