Modi expressed his "deep concern about the safety and welfare of the approximately 4,000 Indian citizens in Yemen" when Saudi King Salman telephoned him late evening, the Indian foreign ministry said. "Prime minister briefed his majesty King Salman on India's evacuation plan and requested his majesty's support and cooperation," a ministry statement said, adding that the king assured Modi of "all possible assistance". India has moved to airlift its citizens from the Middle East country, which has been plunged into chaos by a Huthi Shiite rebellion that has triggered Saudi-backed air strikes on the capital Sanaa.
