According to the news agency AFP, an unnamed government minister, the target of the strike was coalition command posts led by Саудівської Аравії and Yemeni government forces.

Earlier, there was information about explosions near the presidential palace in Aden, where the internationally recognized government of Yemen is based.

The Minister of Information Ємену Муаммар al-Eryani said that Prime Minister Shay al-Zindani and members of the government were not injured. According to him, the attack was carried out with the use of five missiles. It is also reported about the death of two guards of the Prime Minister.

Shortly after the attack, a Houthi-linked TV channel reported that the strike was on “військовому штабу, яким керують саудівські офіцери”.

Aden has served as a temporary residence for the Yemeni government since 2014 - since Houthi rebels based in the north seized the capital Sanaa and other territories in northern Yemen.

  • The Саудівської Аравії-led coalition, along with government troops, is fighting against Iranian-backed Houthis.
