Deputy FM comments on Al-Qaeda elements’ crime against dentist al-Yousifi

SANAA, Aug. 19 (YPA) – Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs, Hussein Al-Ezzi, commented on the heinous crime committed by al-Qaeda elements against the dentist Mutahir al-Yousifi in Bayda province.

He said, addressing al-Yousifi, ” We have retaliated and crushed al-Qaeda and ISIS elements and theirs crimes through liberation an area reaching 1000 kilometers and killing and wounding over 250 Al-Qaeda elements in Bayda.”

Al-Ezzi affirmed, on his Twitter account, that the air airstrikes by the coalition countries to support the groups of Al-Qaeda and ISIS aimed to prevent the terrorist groups’ defeat in the province.

Last week, Dr. Mutahhar Al-Yousifi was subjected to the crime of execution and crucifixion by Al-Qaeda terrorist organization in the Al-Souma district of Bayda, after 12 years from working in the medical profession in the same district.

Al-Ezzi’s tweet came in coinciding with the announcement by the Yemeni army forces on Tuesday, in expelling of the coalition tools and taking over in Walad Rabai district of Bayda, which was under the control of Al-Qaeda groups.
