Yemen carrier suspends flights

Yemen's national carrier declared on Thursday the suspension of its flights until Sunday.

The suspension was decided for the protection of passengers and in the light of deteriorating security conditions in Yemen, the official Yemeni news agency quoted an unnamed official as saying.

It is not clear whether Sanaa International Airport is ready to operate.

A military base adjacent to the airport was targeted by fighter jets belonging to states allied to Saudi Arabia early on Thursday.
