Dubai: Yemen's anti-Houthi forces declared a state of emergency Tuesday after Saudi Arabia launched airstrikes targeting an arms shipment for separatists in the country from the United Arab Emirates.
The forces also issued a 72-hour ban on all border crossings in territory they hold, as well as entries to airports and seaports, except those allowed by Saudi Arabia.
