Jan 8 (Reuters) - The Saudi-led coalition in Yemen said the head of Yemen’s southern separatists, Aidarous al-Zubaidi, left for Somaliland aboard a vessel and then boarded a plane to Somalia’s Mogadishu.

The plane that took him to Mogadishu waited for an hour and then flew to a military airport in Abu Dhabi, the coalition said in a statement, without specifying whether al-Zubaidi was still on board.
