Yemeni govt says it has retaken Aden

YEMEN'S internationally recognised government, which was forced to flee by Houthi rebels, says its forces have retaken the city of Aden.

YEMEN'S exiled government says said it has regained complete control of the strategic southern city of Aden from Iran-backed Houthi rebels, marking the biggest victory for the government in months.

"THE government announces the liberation of the Aden province," Yemen's Vice President and Prime Minister Khaled Bahah posted on his Facebook on Friday.
