Yemen president urges Iran to stop meddling: newspaper

Yemeni President Abed Raboo Mansour Hadi called on Iran to stop supporting separatists in the south and religious groups in the north of the Arabian peninsula country, which is trying to stabilize after more than two years of political upheaval, Reuters reported Monday, March 31st.
“Iranian interference still exists, whether through its support for the Hirak separatists or some religious groups in northern Yemen,” Al Hayat, apparently referring to the Shi’ite Muslim Houthi rebels who are trying to capture more territory in the northern part of the country.
Iranian vessels have been trying to smuggle explosives and surface-to-air missiles to the country.
