Yemeni President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi has directed the special military commission of Yemen's national army to announce the conditions and centres of recruitments to quickly enable the popular resistance fighters to join the national army officially, the official Yemen News Agency reported.
This came during the commission's meeting chaired by the commander of the fourth governorate in Aden, Major-General Ahmed Saif Al Yafei. Brigadier Nasser Mishabbab Al Otaibi, Commander of the UAE Task Force in the Arab Coalition Forces in Aden, attended the meeting.
President Hadi urged the commission members to exert more efforts in cooperation with the Yemeni military and field commanders to identify those fit for serving in the national army and the security service charged with protecting the security and stability of Yemen's liberated governorates.
Hadi was also briefed by military commanders on the developments in Taiz and the combat of readiness of the government forces and affiliate popular resistance forces for liberating the governorate from the rebel Houthi militia and forces loyal to ousted president Ali Abdullah Saleh.
During a phone call with Deputy Chairman of the Military Council and Commander of the Western Front, Brigadier Yousef Al Sharraji, President Hadi praised the heroism of the pro-government forces in the fight against the rebels and lauded their determination to protect the security, stability, dignity and honour of the governorate.
He said the Houthis and Saleh militias murdered innocent people and bombarded houses, schools, hospitals and terrorised women and children in a way that violates ethical and human principles.
The president stressed the need to hold fast against the militias and defeat them so that the residents of the governorates would enjoy peace, stability and safety.
The Yemeni president urged the residents of Taiz governorate to close their ranks and back the national army and resistance forces on all fronts to cleanse the city of Taiz from the rebels.
Meanwhile, the Voices of Women of Aden, a Yemeni non-governmental coalition, said 196 women were killed in five months during the war.
Some of the women were killed in their houses by the rebel militia's random bombing, while others were targeted in the streets by the rebel snipers or succumbed to their wounds in hospitals, said Warda Bin Sumait Chairwoman of the Al Adala Foundation for Rights and Freedoms, one of the seven women societies making up the non-governmental coalition.
The Yemeni woman advocate, who was speaking in a Press conference held to observe the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, confirmed that 121 other women in Aden were wounded by the rebel militias in the same period.
"The Houthi and Saleh militias committed ignominious violations against women in Aden between 26 March-17 July," she said.
In addition, the war being waged by the rebels has inflicted multiple physical and psychological trauma on Yemeni women, Bin Sumait added.
