AL-MUKALLA: Kuwait has agreed to provide Yemenia, Yemen’s national air carrier, with three aircraft and two engines to supplement its limited fleet, days after the Houthis seized four of the airline’s planes.

Yemen’s government said authorities in Kuwait notified the Yemeni embassy in Kuwait on Sunday that they have agreed to a request from Rashad Al-Alimi, chairperson of Yemen’s Presidential Leadership Council, to assist Yemenia.
