Islah Party calls on several political, military officials to leave Marib

SANAA, Dec. 6 (YPA) – The Saudi-led coalition allowed on Sunday 17 military and civilian officials loyal to the Islah Party to leave the city of Marib, according to sources familiar with the matter.

The sources revealed the move came through a mediation led by the military leader in the Islah party, Ali Mohsen al-Ahmar.

The sources affirmed that Al-Ahmar pleaded the coalition to allow 10 military leaders and 7 civilian leaders, who are close to him, to leave the city with their families to Shabwa province.

The move came also after the Yemeni army has advanced militarily to close to and take control over the coalition-held city.
