Jordan refuses to allow a Yemeni plane to land at Queen Alia Airport

Jordanian authorities refused to allow a Yemenia Airlines passenger plane to land at Queen Alia International Airport on Thursday.

The plane was forced to return to Sanaa International Airport, where it had taken off from, as informed sources in the aviation sector said that the plane had taken off from Sanaa without the necessary permissions from Jordanian authorities.

The Iran-backed Houthis had operated the flight arbitrarily and without prior permission from the relevant Jordanian authorities. The sources mentioned.

Less than a week ago, another passenger flight to the same airport experienced difficulties when passengers arrived without their luggage, which had been checked in at Sanaa for shipment.
