Representational image. PTI[/caption] In a statement, the internationally recognised government said the vessel disappeared some 40 kilometres from the remote Socotra Island five days ago. It was heading from the southern province of Hadramawt, carrying women and children among others. Another statement by the governor of Hadramawt, Ahmed ben-Break said that two were rescued and that the search is still ongoing. The government has urged the Saudi-led coalition which is backing the government in its fight against the Houthi rebels for help. Flights between Yemeni cities and the island were suspended since March 2015 when the Saudi-led coalition began its campaign, by closing the air space of Yemen.
