Foreign Minister Datuk Seri Mohamad Hasan expressed empathy for the Yemeni people's struggles due to the ongoing civil war, which includes famine and difficulties accessing essential items. The topic was raised by his Yemeni counterpart, Minister of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates Dr Afrah Abdulaziz Al-Zouba, during a phone conversation on Thursday. Mohamad told reporters after delivering Deepavali gifts at the Rantau community hall, \"Malaysia stands ready to provide assistance, to the best of our abilities.\" The Minister emphasized the need to end the conflict, which harms the estimated 22 million inhabitants and perpetuates their suffering. He appealed to foreign parties to play a constructive role by returning to the negotiation table to secure peace and prosperity for the Yemeni people. Mohamad stressed that prioritizing diplomatic efforts is crucial to prevent the conflict from prolonging and destabilizing the region.",
