WORLD Team Latestly|

At least 26 people were killed on December 30 as explosions rocked Yemen's Aden airport. The incident took place moments after a new unity government flew in, in what some officials charged was a "cowardly" attack by Iran-backed Huthi rebels. Although all government ministers were reported to be unharmed, more than 50 people were wounded, medical & government sources told AFP in the southern city. The casualty toll is feared likely to rise. Doctors Without Borders (MSF) said it was preparing a "mass casualty medical response plan".
