Yemeni government forces have reclaimed control of Aden, including the presidential palace, after the city was seized by separatists earlier this month.
The forces loyal to the internationally recognized government of Yemeni President Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi attacked the districts surrounding the interim capital Aden, retaking it from southern separatists.
Government forces earlier recaptured most of the neighboring towns they had previously lost to the separatists including Aden Airport before moving towards the port city of Aden.
Aden has served as the government’s temporary capital since 2015 when President Hadi and his cabinet were forced to flee Sanaa by the Houthis.
