Minister Badr Ba-Salma

Yemen's Minister of Transport Badr Ba-Salma has suspended flights in Aden airport as well as navigation at Aden port until restoring security around them, pro-legitimate government state news agency reported.

The reconstruction committee will prepare during the coming week a report about damage in Aden, said the minister, who serves as deputy chairman of the committee, said.

All members of the Yemeni cabinet will meet in Aden next week, he said.

Yemen has been mired in violence since the Houthis captured Sanaa last September.

The Houthis are fighting alongside army rebels loyal to former President Ali Abdullah Saleh against forces loyal to legitimate President Abd Rabu Mansour Hadi.
