The Prime Minister honored the Yemenia Airlines crew for safely landing a plane during an Israeli bombing campaign at Sana'a International Airport. The ceremony commended the crew’s bravery and reinforced Yemen's commitment to the Palestinian cause.

Yemenia Airlines issued a public statement condemning the Israeli aggression on Sana'a International Airport. The airline denounced the targeting of civilian infrastructure and the violation of international humanitarian law by labeling the attacks as 'Zionist aggression'. The statement highlighted the destruction of parts of the airport and the resultant casualties, thereby underlining its stance against actions that endanger civilian lives.

On June 5, 2024, Yemen's Transport Ministry ordered Yemenia Airlines to transfer all past and future revenue to bank accounts in Aden or overseas. The directive is aimed at protecting the airline's funds from falling under the control of the Houthi group, which is designated as a terrorist organization, and ensuring the financial resources needed for operations and modernization.

On October 10, 2023, the Yemeni government proposed a resolution to the operational dispute between Yemenia and Houthi forces by requiring the Houthis to release over $80 million in Yemenia's bank funds and end interference with its operations. This measure, demanded to resume commercial flights from Sanaa and expand destinations, underscores Yemenia's effort to reclaim financial accessibility and operational independence in the face of political interference.

Yemenia suspended its flights to and from Sanaa for October after the Houthi administration blocked the airline's access to over $80 million in funds, following failed negotiations that included a proposed fund-sharing arrangement. The carrier emphasized its neutral stance amid the ongoing conflict and political tensions.

On September 30, 2023, Yemenia Airlines called on the Houthi militia to lift illegal restrictions on over $80 million of its financial balances in Sana’a-based banks. The airline described the restrictions as politically motivated and harmful to its commercial operations, emphasizing its commitment to neutrality and humanitarian priorities.
