KABUL: (Middle East Press) Saudi Arabia has evacuated its own and foreign diplomats from Yemen’s southern city of Aden.
Some Persian Gulf Arab states, including Saudi Arabia, have already relocated their embassies from Sana’a to Aden.
The evacuation comes after a third night of airstrikes by a Saudi-led coalition failed to halt the advance of Houthi rebels towards the city.
Yemen President Abdrabbuh Mansour Hadi fled from Aden to Saudi Arabia on Wednesday as rebels closed in.
On Saturday he will address an Arab League summit focused on the crisis in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt.
On March 26, the Al Saudi regime released deadly air raids against Yemen’s Houthi Ansarullah movement in an attempt to restore fugitive Yemeni president, a close ally of Riyadh, to power.
