security and stability elements.
"We go to Aden and move through its streets without guards and arms, but what has

phenomena
are absolutely banned," the minister said.
As for the security situation in Yemen and the exerted efforts in counterterrorism,
the minister made clear that the country and its people are fighting against
terrorist
acts and Al-Qaeda in particular, indicating that the war against terror will not
