Yemeni separatists have taken control of the strategic city of Aden after days of fighting with forces backing the internationally recognized government.
A spokesperson for the Southern Transitional Council (STC) told CNN the group took over the city including its presidential palace, port and airport. Aden has been the seat of the Saudi-backed government since Houthi fighters took over Sanaa in 2014.
"We are not inside the presidential compound, which is on an island, but we have secured its entrances and exits," Nizar Haytham, the STC spokesperson, told CNN.
CNN wasn't able to verify the claims. However, the interior minister of the country's internationally recognized government conceded a defeat in what he called a "successful coup."
The enemy of my enemy is my friend? Lesson learned.

You don’t need food if you can resort to cannibalism. And I’m not even saying that’s a good thing or a bad thing.

Why would we ever trust Saudi Arabia with our weapons?
Oil for American dollars only. Are we still pretending that isn’t common knowledge.

How is it that CNN doesn’t talk about US support for Saudi war against Yemenis, that’s a genocide, trump and obama are war criminals
Qanon: If Saudi Arabia invades Yemen and start a war, that is not the definition of a civil war. Back to school CNN!
It IS a civil war. Saudis picked a side.
If 1 country invades another country and starts a war. That is not a civil war. A civil war is a domestic war. How come that everyone named Mueller is stupid?
Notice the American, Navistar made, Israeli armored, MRAP rolling down the street. smh
Despotic regime Saudi Arabia is supported by Trump…..smfh
The CNN guy reporting about yemen while in Abu dhabi :-)) pretty oxymoron
