The Saudi-led coalition in Yemen has launched strikes on the country’s southern Dali governorate, saying it was targeting separatist forces after their leader fled without boarding a plane scheduled to take him to Riyadh.
In a statement issued early on Wednesday, the coalition said the leader of the Southern Transitional Council (STC) Aidarous al-Zubaidi had been due to fly out from the Yemeni city of Aden on Tuesday night for talks on ending the conflict between his group and the internationally recognised government of Yemen.
