Djiboutian authorities have released 25 Yemeni fishermen who had been detained for illegal fishing, Yemen’s Interior Ministry said Tuesday.
According to the ministry’s media center, 12 fishermen arrived in Yemen’s central Taiz province after being released by Djiboutian authorities.
Thirteen more fishermen have since been released and will arrive in Yemen on Wednesday or Thursday, according to the ministry.
There has been no comment from the Djiboutian authorities on the report.
Yemeni fishermen are frequently detained for illegally fishing in other countries’ territorial waters.
