Government denounces violence in Yemen

AMMAN — The government on Saturday denounced terrorist attacks, which targeted two mosques and worshippers in Sanaa, the capital of Yemen, on Friday.  

The government denounced all acts of violence that the Yemeni people are facing, including the attacks against the country’s elected leaders and attempts to seize control of Aden International Airport. 

Minister of State for Media Affairs and Communications Mohammad Momani, who is also the government spokesperson, said such acts seek to fuel unrest and disrupt the political transition process in Yemen, according to the Jordan News Agency, Petra. 

Jordan renewed its support for Yemen’s unity, sovereignty and independence, and efforts exerted for the resumption of the political process.

Momani reaffirmed the country’s rejection of any intervention in Yemen’s internal affairs and of any attempts to undermine its domestic security.
