Aden — Yemeni President Abdrabbu Mansour Hadi ordered the transfer of the headquarters of parliament to the temporary capital of Aden in south Yemen.
According to official Yemeni news agency, President Hadi issued the decree based on the Constitution of Yemen, the Gulf Cooperation Council member states’ initiative and its executive mechanism, the outcome of the Comprehensive National Dialogue and the text of Article 66 of the Constitution of Yemen and Article (5) of the Rules of Procedure of the Council of Representatives of Yemen.

Moreover, the Yemeni national army has thwarted an attack carried out by the coup militias on Al-Sayahi area of Al-Dhabab Directorate in the city of Taiz.
Arab Coalition Forces Supporting Legitimacy in Yemen managed to destroy a military drone in northern Mokha District, Yemen. The military drone was at a mobile launching platform, intended to target Yemeni forces participating in the liberation of Mokha city and Port.
