April 17th, 2009 |

SANA’A, Yeman (Saba News) – Interior Ministry of Yemen has reported that about 247 Ethiopians, including 24 women and children, entered the Yemeni territories illegally last month.

Nearly 190 Ethiopians have arrived to the coasts of Abyan and Taiz governorates through sea coming from the African Horn, according to statistics issued by the Ministry.

The rest of them have been arrested on land by the security authorities in governorates of Mahweet, Marib, Aden, Taiz and Hodeidah, in addition to four persons have been held at the Haradh border outlet trying to sneak to the country via the Saudi borders, the Ministry said.

All arrested Ethiopians have referred to the immigration authorities to be deported to their homeland, as Yemen, hosts over 750,000 Somalis as refugees, can not afford another issue of Ethiopian immigration into its lands.
