For now, the causes of the explosion are unknown.
At least 12 people died this Saturday in an explosion near the airport in Aden, the second city in Yemen to temporarily host the government, he told the AFP a person in charge of the security services.
“Twelve civilians have died in an explosion” near the Aden airport, according to these sources.
For now, the causes of the explosion are unknown.
“There is an undetermined number of injured,” according to this official.
In mid-October, the city was the scene of a car bomb attack that left six dead and was targeted by a convoy of political leaders, including the governor of Aden and the Minister of Agriculture, who were unharmed.
Since 2014, pro-government forces have waged war in Yemen against the Houthi rebels, backed by Iran and who control much of the north of the country, including the capital, Sana’a.
In seven years of war, tens of thousands of people, mostly civilians, have died and millions have been displaced, according to international organizations. (I)
