Senior members of Yemen's exiled administration flew to Aden on Thursday to make preparations for the government's return, an official said, three months after being pushed out by Iran-backed Shiite Houthi rebels. Some ministers, the intelligence chief and the deputy head of the house of representatives were among the members of the administration who returned to Aden. The southern port city of Aden has been a focus of fighting since the Houthis first laid siege to it in March when it was home to the government, which subsequently fled to Saudi Arabia.
