MARIB, May 13 (YPA) – Hadi’s government announced on Wednesday recording the first infection case of Corona virus (COVID-19) in the areas it controls in Marib province, and four cases in other places under the occupation.

this brings the total number of Corona cases in the areas under the control of Hadi government and the occupied provinces to 70, including 12 deaths.

The Hadi government’s committee to confront Corona said two cases were recorded, including one in Aden province, and two in Lahj province, including one death.

The World Health Organization has warned of COVID-19 outbreak in Yemen, because its population has the lowest levels of immunity and the highest levels of exposure to disease compared to other countries, and the anxiety is aggravated due to the weak ability to conduct examinations on large-scale.
