Yemen's President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi issued two orders on Tuesday appointing two new commanders for two military zones.
Under Hadi's orders, Maj. General Ali Naser and Maj. General Abd-Al Rabb al Shadady will be commanders of military zones three and four respectively.
Earlier, Hadi, from his residence in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, has also sacked Army Chief of Staff Hussein Khairan along with three other brigade commanders loyal to Houthis.
The fourth military zones includes Aden, Ad Dali', Abyan and Taiz governorates, while the third zone includes Ma'rib and Shabwah governorates.
