Yemen separatists send reinforcements to Aden
Aden, (MILLAT ONLINE):Separatists sent reinforcements to Yemen’s southern city of Aden on Monday as fighting continued with
government units, security and humanitarian sources said, a day after the secessionists seized government headquarters.
The separatist takeover on Sunday in the interim capital threw war-torn Yemen into further chaos,
sparking warnings of a “coup” from the embattled government.
It further complicates years of conflict, in which the coalition backed government has been battling
rebels controlling the capital Sanaa and much of the north of the country.
On Monday, the separatists, who have long demanded independence for the south, dispatched
additional forces from the central province of Marib and southern province of Abyan, security sources
said.
