imageADEN: Yemen's president returned to Aden on Tuesday from exile in Saudi Arabia, a day after a military offensive was launched against rebels, a presidential source said.

After landing in the provisional capital, Abedrabbo Mansour Hadi went straight to the palace to "supervise" the offensive, which is aimed at retaking rebel-controlled Taez province.

His return comes just days after his prime minister, Khaled Bahah, announced the government's return to the war-torn country.

The president has tried to return before.
