First commercial ship arrives at Aden Port

A first commercial ship docked on Friday in Yemen's Aden port, the first vessel of its kind to reach the city since it was overrun by anti-government rebels in March, Yemeni officials have said.

The official sources quoted by Sky News Arabia said  a cargo of 350 containers containing products ordered by businesses in Aden had arrived at the port, which was retaken by pro-government forces last month.

Earlier, the port after the liberation, received a number of UAE and Saudi ships laden with the humanitarian aid to assist people who had been besieged by the rebels for months.
