Al-Alimi prepares for new military confrontations in Yemen

ADEN, Jul. 19 (YPA) – Rashad al-Alimi, chairman of the Riyadh Presidential Council, returned to the southern Yemeni city of Aden on Tuesday, coming  from Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

Al-Alimi called on all pro-coalition forces to rally around what he called the “goal of restoring the state” and rebuilding its destroyed institutions.

According to Yemeni observers, Al-Alimi’s remarks suggest that he received direct instructions from  Saudi-led coalition leaders following the Jeddah summit meeting to resume military confrontations in Yemen.

This comes a day after the Coalition-backed Government raises combat readiness on all fronts.
