(MENAFN- Kuwait News Agency (KUNA)) Yemen's visiting Foreign Minister Riyadh Yasin Abdullah called Wednesday for urgent Arab military intervention to resolve the country's current crisis.
Following his meeting with Arab League Secretary General Nabil Al-
Araby, Abdullah warned in remarks to reporters against "dangerous repercussions facing Yemen's stability in this period".
Abdullah emphasized, at the same time, that Yemen's President Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi will participate in the upcoming Arab League Summit to be hosted by Cairo next Saturday.
The minister added that Yemen needs urgent intervention from all Arab countries to save the country, noting he briefed Al-Araby on the dangerous escalation by Houthis aiming to bring down Aden and other cities.
This will complete the Iranian-Houthi control over the whole country, he noted.
Abdullah revealed that a special meeting on Yemen will be held in the Egyptian resort city of Sharm El-Sheikh tomorrow on the sidelines of the Arab Foreign Ministers' gathering.
"We also will ask the upcoming summit for urgent intervention," he said, noting Al-Araby understood this demand as the country is witnessing a hazardous crisis.
The minister underlined the significance of coordination between Yemen and Egypt to face the risks in this current period.
