On Saturday, Yemeni Prime Minister Maeen Abdulmalik Saeed described the latest Aden Airport Blasts as “A message against peace and stability in Yemen” during his interview with the Associated Press.
Moreover, he expressed that eliminating the new cabinet is one of the main reasons for the missile attack. Furthermore, he repeated his accusations of the Iran-backed Houthis rebels adding that the “techniques” used in the attack "were hallmarks of the Houthis’ strategy."
The Prime Minister highlighted that three precision-guided missiles had struck the facility, targeting his plane, the arrival hall, and the VIP lounge of the airport.
"Yemeni investigators have collected the remains of the missiles and that experts from the Saudi-led coalition and the U.S. would help determine the type and origins of the missiles," AP explained.
Regarding the impact of the attack on the government's job, Saaed asserted that “Whatever the challenges in Aden, the government remains."
He also reflected that “huge” economic challenges would be the main focus of his government.
Last week, a powerful explosion rocked the Aden Airport shortly after a plane carrying the new Yemeni government landed.
Yemeni Minister of Health Qassem Buhaibeh announced that the death toll from the attack on Aden International Airport rose to 25. In a tweet, Buhaibuh said that the attack at the airport killed at least 25 people and wounded 110 others.
