New Delhi, Mar 25 (IBNS) The Government on Wednesday issued an advisory asking Indian nationals in Yemen to leave the country in view of the volatile situation there.
 "The security situation in Yemen is fragile with high possibility of major conflict and disturbances,"  External Affairs Ministry Spokesperson Syed Akbaruddin said.
 
There are about 3500 Indian nationals in Yemen and most of them live in capital Sana'a.
 
 Houthi Shiite rebels have captured the presidential palace and allegedly forced President Hadi to leave the country. The rebel militants have also claimed to have captured the southern seaport of Aden.
 
The Government, in its previous advisories of January 21 advisory said, "Indian nationals in Yemen may consider leaving the country on voluntary basis by commercial means, if it is safe to do so."
 
Indian nationals in Yemen have been advised to avoid conflict areas and remain in contact with the embassy officials for advice and updated information.
