As many as 157 Yemenis returned to their country from Djibouti, the Riyadh-based King Salman Center for Relief and Humanitarian Works said on Saturday.

The center's spokesman Ra'afat al-Sabbagh said two flights with 314 Yemenis on board arrived Friday in Yemen amid the center's program to back 1,400 Yemeni refugees in Djibouti home.

The program started on Thursday by moving 157 Yemenis into Yemen, al-Sabbagh said.
