ADEN — Yemeni Minister of Foreign Affairs and Expatriate Affairs Ahmed Awad bin Mubarak underlined the importance of stopping the Iranian regime's interference in Yemen's internal affairs, highlighting that the Iranian Revolutionary Guard’s support for the Houthis confirms the extremist nature of the two groups.
