Chinese navy carried teacher from danger

By Agence France-Presse in Peshawar, Pakistan | China Daily | Updated: 2015-04-16 07:50

Pakistani teacher Saima Tanveer show little emotion as she recounts her family's terrifying dash through war-torn Aden, dodging bullets and shells to reach the port and flee Yemen on a Chinese naval vessel.

The 35-year-old was among around 170 Pakistanis who escaped the country on April 3, along with her accountant husband and two disabled children.

Pakistan has evacuated hundreds of its citizens from Yemen since a military coalition led by Saudi Arabia began bombing rebels last month to try to restore exiled President Abedrabbo Mansour Hadi to power.
