The Arab Coalition confirmed that the terrorist attempt to target Al-Masheeq Palace in Aden confirms the responsibility of the Iranian-backed Houthi militia for the terrorist attack on Aden International Airport during the arrival of the Prime Minister and members of the Yemeni government.

The spokesman for the coalition, Turki Al-Maliki, stated that these terrorist acts do not target the Yemeni government, but rather the hopes and aspirations of the people of Yemen before their attempt to assassinate members of the Yemeni government and try to thwart the Riyadh Agreement.

Earlier, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs confirmed that the indications indicate that the Houthi militia is the party responsible for targeting Aden airport with four ballistic missiles, which has killed and injured a hundred people so far.

The Foreign Ministry considered that the targeting of the civilian airport is a flagrant violation of international humanitarian law and a heinous terrorist crime that requires condemnation and denunciation by all members of the international community.
