Saudi-led Arab coalition tightens grip on Taiz rebels

The Saudi-led Arab coalition has tightened its grip on the rebels in the second day of fighting in the Yemeni city of Taiz. Clashes took place in the vicinity of the presidential palace as the coalition stepped up its raids on the rebels. Meanwhile, in the city of Aden, the Emirates Red Crescent is continuing its humanitarian aid by providing ambulances to restore the health sector, which was severely affected by the fighting. It is also giving aid to areas affected by the recent tropical cyclone that hit southern parts of Yemen earlier this week.
