JEDDAH: Col. Turki Al-Maliki, spokesman for the Arab Coalition to Support Legitimacy in Yemen, has denied media reports suggesting that a warrant has been issued for the arrest of Ali Al-Harizi, the former deputy governor of Al-Mahra province. Al-Maliki said the coalition gave no such orders or instructions, and that official organizations in Yemen representing local authorities and security forces specialize in such matters. Al-Maliki added that operations “Restore Hope” and “Decisive Storm” are the current priority for coalition forces.
