Latest incident of Saudi Arabia friendly fire leaves 30 dead in Yemen

They have also pushed the rebels back in Marib province and parts of Taez province, including the strategic Bab Al Mandeb strait. Meanwhile, five Yemeni civilians and 12 fighters were killed this month by rebel-planted mines in a central province, medical and security officials from the anti-rebel side said Wednesday.

Also Saturday, airstrikes from the Saudi-led coalition targeting Houthi rebels mistakenly struck a pro-government military encampment, killing at least 20 fighters and wounding another 20 in the latest instance of friendly fire in the anti-rebel camp, security officials said.

"We are all anxious Aden may be next", one pro-government security official told The Associated Press. The crowds calling for independence from the north gathered despite threats from al-Qaida's Yemen branch against the rally that were circulated on social media.

A USA official said the White House is carefully tracking the progress of imports and expects "increased commercial activity to Yemen in the near future". "Any accusation that civilians are being intentionally targeted by the coalition is simply propaganda being disseminated by those who are using Yemen as a staging ground for their violent, revolutionary agenda".

"Our troops in Yemen are ready to do their military task under the command of the alliance military leadership", Sudanese army spokesman Brigadier General Ahmed Khalifa Alshami said.

Hadi eventually fled to Saudi Arabia where he sought help from Riyadh and its Arab allies, requesting they intervene in Yemen with military force in order to restore him and the government to power.

And last month, Hadi's government backed away from UN-sponsored talks that were to be held in Oman, insisting the rebels first agree to United Nations resolution 2216 passed in April demanding their withdrawal from territory they have seized since overrunning the capital in September 2013.

Hundreds of Sudanese troops arrived in Yemen to bolster Saudi Arabia's campaign against Shiite Houthi rebels there who forced its president into exile. Unidentified gunmen killed a UAE national in Aden on Saturday at a shop, according to a local security source.

Residents in Yemen's capital reported hearing a roar as what they said was a Scud was launched from near the city.
