RIYADH-SABA
Vice President Lt. Gen. Ali Mohsen Saleh has followed up on the latest developments in Taiz and Hodeidah in separate meetings with the govenors of the two western Yemen provinces suffering under Houthi attacks.

In meeting the governor of Taiz, he was briefed on the rebuilding and reconstruction processes at the province's parts retaken from the theocratic Houthi militia that with backing from Iran wanted to control Yemen.

He praised the city's contribution to fighting for freedom and issued orders to the government quicken the payment of the city's local military.

In a meeting with the governor of Hodeidah, the Vice President noted that the Houthis are obstructing the implementation of the Hodeidah Agreement by sidestepping it in different ways to retain their control over the Red Sea port which they use to smuggle in Iranian arms.
