ABYAN, Sep. 23 (YPA) – Yemen’s southern province of Abyan was subjected on Wednesday evening to a massive invasion that had not been witnessed before, which foreshadows a verified disaster, according to local sources.

“Large waves of locusts spread in the central areas of the province,” said a local source.
