Coalition recruits loyal to Hadi’s gov’t cut off road between Taiz, Lahj

TAIZ, Sept. 24 (YPA) – A number of Saudi-led coalition recruits loyal to Hadi’s government on Tuesday blocked off the road linking between Taiz city and al-Torba area, south of Taiz province.

According to sources, soldiers from the so-called 5th battalion of the 170th Air Defense Brigade in Taiz axis cut off the al-Dhabab road, in protest against the non-payment of their salaries since last July.

The blocking of the road led to the disruption of the movement of passengers for several hours, as it is the only road that passengers use to travel to all the southern provinces, the sources added.
