The visit came as Washington struggles to improve relations with China amid tensions over Taiwan's status
The plane, which was arriving from Amman, left the runway and slid on one of its wings, causing a fire that was quickly extinguished, Faraj was quoted by the official Saba news as saying.
The airport was temporarily closed, he said, without revealing what the aircraft was carrying.
Civil aviation and the Yemeni air force have opened a joint investigation into the circumstances, he added.
The Thursday incident was the second in a little more than a week involving a Yemeni military aircraft.
On November 10, a Yemeni MiG-21 fighter jet crashed near Hudaydah airport on the Red Sea during a training mission, but the pilot survived unharmed.
