SANAA, May 19 (YPA) – Interior Minister Ahmed al-Misari of exiled, resigned president Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi and Ben Daghr’s authorities backed by Saudi Arabia said there are a number of indicators that confirm that the UAE came to occupy South Yemen.

Al-Misari’ remarks came within an interview aired by the US-based PBS TV.

“I can’t enter the city of Aden or exit without permission from the United Arab Emirates.”, Al-Misari said.

Al-Misari added that the UAE controls the management of the port and the airport in Aden and no one can go to there without taking permission from the UAE.

” If I do not have authority over prisons. So what’s my duty as interior minister?” he said, referring to UAE-run prisons.

He described the performance of  ben Daghr’s authorities as “negative role.”
