DUBAI: Saudi Arabia’s ambassador to Yemen said on Friday that Aidarus Al-Zubaidi, the leader of Yemen’s UAE-backed Southern Transitional Council, refused landing permission the previous day for a plane carrying a Saudi delegation to Aden.
Zubaidi issued directives to close air traffic at Aden airport, the ambassador, Mohammed Al-Jaber, added in a posting on X.
Flights were halted on Thursday at Yemen’s Aden international airport, the main international gateway for regions of the country outside Houthi control.
