Yemen’s internationally recognised government has condemned attacks targeting the country’s Aden and Al Rayyan airports with ballistic missiles and drones, Al Jazeera reports.
The Ministry of Transport says Al Rayyan Airport was attacked by three drones, all of which fell near the airport’s runways, and warns against “threatening the safety of civil aviation and the lives of passengers”.
It adds that the attack on Aden International Airport, which it says had been attacked for a fourth time, occurred shortly after two flights departed for Oman and Cairo and moments after a plane carrying personnel from the Red Cross and Doctors Without Borders landed.
“We stopped and postponed two flights to Addis Ababa and Cairo and evacuated Aden Airport of passengers and workers to ensure their safety,” the ministry says, noting that no casualties, injuries or damage were reported at Al Rayyan Airport.
It adds, “Aden and Al Rayyan airports will continue to serve citizens and humanitarian flights despite operational risks.”
