"The Yemeni government announces support for the steps the command of the pro-legitimacy Arab coalition has taken to remove the Qatari forces from its ranks," read a statement released by the government. "(This decision comes) after Qatar's exchanges with the coup militias and support to extremist groups in Yemen has become exposed.
Practices that are in contradiction with the agreed upon goals of the member states of the coalition backing Yemen's government."
The Yemeni government said it is confident the rest coalition members will continue to exert all their efforts to achieve peace and security for the Yemeni people, restore the state sovereignty back from the coup forces and continue to fight terrorism on all the Yemeni land.
