The Yemeni commander of a vast military district covering half the country`s border with Saudi Arabia pledged support to Saudi-backed President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi on Sunday, local officials said, Reuters reported.
The announcement puts at least 15,000 troops in the desert border area on the same side as the kingdom, the world`s top oil exporter, after three weeks of an inconclusive bombing campaign it has led against Iran-allied Houthi rebels.
