YEMEN, Jan . 28 (YPA) – The Saudi-backed presidential protection forces loyal to the resigned president Abd Rabbo Mansour Hadi on Sunday stopped all flights from and to Aden Airport, an official at the airport told Yemen Press Agency.
All entrances of Yemeni southern port city and all roads leading to the airport were closed, especially Crater and Khor Makser districts and Ma’asheeq area, amid an intensive deployment of Saudi occupying forces’ vehicles in the streets of the city.
Sunday ongoing clashes have so far killed and wounded at least 50 people, including civilians, according to medics.
The move came amid high political tensions in the city as street clashes between Saudi-backed militants and United Arab Emirates-backed Yemeni southern separatist movement have escalated.
