Exiled Yemeni President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi has arrived in Aden on Tuesday, Reuters reported, for the first time since he fled the southern port city for Saudi Arabia six months ago.

A government source told Reuters Hadi plans to spend the Muslim Eid al-Adha holiday in his home country and then plans to fly to New York for a UN speech. 

The exiled president's visit follows news of the government moving back to Yemen. Prime Minister Khaled Bahah and seven other ministers returned to Aden permanently last week.
