Yemeni Minister of Transport Mohsen Ali Haidara said that targeting civilian airports is a criminal act that violates international laws.

Speaking in an interview with Al Arabiya, Haidara added that Aden International Airport serves all regions of Yemen, including those under Houthi control.

He continued, condemning such acts as crimes against humanity that spread fear and terror, and emphasized that the airport serves all Yemeni cities, not just areas under the legitimate government.

Houthi militias have continued to target civilian sites and facilities in Yemen, while the Yemeni army is conducting Operation "Dawn of Yemen" to liberate all areas from their control and neutralize their threats.
