Three militapaid fighters nts of Islah party on a military pickup belonging to the Taiz axis, raided and took control of Al-Thawra hospital and its main gate, adding that paid fighters closed all the hospital departments except the emergency sector supported by Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF).
The Yemeni security forces seized on Thursday two trucks of the UN of the World Food Programme (WFP) carrying 1,600 bags of expired flour in the province.
According to the official, staffs of Standards and Metrology Authority in the province proved that the expired flour and is not suitable for the human use due to the spread of insects and larvae into it.

In March 2015, the US -backed –Saudi-led coalition started a war against Yemen with the declared aim of crushing the Houthi Ansarullah movement, who had taken over from the staunch Riyadh ally and fugitive former president Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi, while also seeking to secure the Saudi border with its southern neighbor. Three years and over 600,000 dead and injured Yemeni people and prevented the patients from travelling abroad for treatment and blocked the entry of medicine into the war-torn country, the war has yielded little to that effect.
Despite the coalition claims that it is bombing the positions of the Ansarullah fighters, Saudi bombers are flattening residential areas and civilian infrastructures.
However, Saudi Arabia relies heavily on the US in its brutal war on Yemen. Washington has deployed a commando force on the Arab kingdom’s border with Yemen to help destroy arms belonging to Yemen’s popular Houthi Ansarullah movement. Washington has also provided logistical support and aerial refueling.
