Yemen denies participation of Iraqi officers in the war
By Nasser Arrabyee/18/08/2009

The Yemeni government denied Iranian allegations that Iraqi officers are participating in the war against Al Houthi rebels in Sa'ada, north of the country.

"The Iranian official media have turned to a podium for the rebels, saboteurs and terrorists of Al Houthi," State-run media quoted an unidentified official as saying Tuesday.

The official called the Iranian official media to pay attention to the internal affairs in Iran instead of defending the "rebels and outlaws".

"That inciting and hostile language reveals a suspicious agenda for targeting the security and stability of Yemen," the official said.

The Iranian media including Al Alam Satellite channel have keenly covering the war between the Al Houthi Shiite rebels and government troops since it erupted earlier this month.
