Houthis Enter Aden
ADEN (Reuters) – Houthi fighters and allies backed by tanks pushed on Wednesday into central Aden, the main foothold of fighters loyal to fugitive President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi, witnesses said, despite more than a week of air strikes by Saudi-led coalition forces.
The alliance of 10 Gulf Arab states has also attacked the fighters from the sea but their advance towards the southern port city has been relentless.
Aden residents said they saw large groups of fighters carrying rocket propelled grenades accompanied by tanks and trucks mounted with machine guns in the Khor Maksar district – part of a neck of land linking central Aden to the rest of the city.
