In the BBC report “Crises mul­ti­ply for divided Yemen” Deputy Plan­ning Min­is­ter Hisham Sharaf said: “We have one Yemen and one state”, makes won­der why the president’s rec­on­cil­i­a­tion effort excluded the South-Yemen sep­a­ratists and the Houthis in the north?

Human Rights Watch released a report called “In the name of unity” explains what’s really going on in the South Yemen, based on 80 inter­views con­ducted by HRW with a num­ber of vic­tims of the attacks in Aden and Mukalla, as the report con­cludes that the Yemeni secu­rity forces used vio­lence against unarmed demon­stra­tors in six demon­stra­tions at the very least.

On the war front with the Houthis, Yemeni police seized a truck loaded with weapons head­ing to Houthis in the north, but Al-Marsad cor­re­spon­dent who was in the area said he did not saw these weapons.

Speak­ing about arms and weapons, the Yemeni gov­ern­ment claims the seizure of Iran­ian weapons, but the Head of the Yemen National Secu­rity revealed to Al-Hayat that Army offi­cers are smug­gling weapons to the Houthis.

Houthis leader Yehiya Al-Houthi released a state­ment address­ing the Yemeni peo­ple, accus­ing the U.S. with bomb­ing North Yemen and Sa’ada area
