Military brigade 35 in Ta'izz has reportedly rebelled against its leader, allied to former Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Saleh, and pledged support to the legitimacy of President Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi, Sky News Arabia reported. Saudi Arabia alongside GCC states, Egypt, Morocco, Pakistan, Jordan and Sudan have launched the 'Decisive Storm' military operation against Houthi rebels who seized the capital Sana'a and placed President Hadi alongside prominent officials under house arrest before advancing towards Aden, where Hadi attempted to regain power.
