Yemen appoints three officials to transport posts by decree
The decree names Hassan Faraj Mohammed Omar to civil aviation, Saber Abdo Mohammed al-Sunaidi to the Gulf of Aden Ports Corporation and Riyadh Saeed Omar Bajumaan to maritime affairs.
Three officials have been appointed to senior posts in Yemen's transport sector under a republican decree issued on Monday, the news agency of Yemen's internationally recognised government Saba (Government) reported.
The decree, numbered 76 of 2026, names Engineer Hassan Faraj Mohammed Omar as chairman of the board of directors of the General Authority for Civil Aviation and Meteorology.
Saber Abdo Mohammed al-Sunaidi was appointed chairman of the board of directors and chief executive officer of the Gulf of Aden Ports Corporation.
Captain Riyadh Saeed Omar Bajumaan was named undersecretary of the Ministry of Transport for maritime affairs and ports.
The second article of the decree says it takes effect on the date of issue and will be published in the Official Gazette.
The General Authority for Civil Aviation and Meteorology is the state body responsible for civil aviation and weather services in the areas under the government's control.
The Gulf of Aden Ports Corporation operates ports on Yemen's Gulf of Aden coast, and the transport ministry oversees its work.
Yemen's internationally recognised government, based in the southern city of Aden, has been locked in a long-running conflict with the Houthi movement, which controls much of the north, including the capital Sanaa.
