[HODHODYEMENNEWS] Weapon shipment has arrived board a military plane designated for the UAE-backed Southern Transitional Council (STC)’s militia in Hadhramaut province.

An official source confirmed that an Emirati military plane arrived yesterday, Friday, at al-Rayyan airport in Mukalla city, carrying weapons and a number of officers, including foreigners.

The source indicated that the plane unloaded its shipment of weapons and military equipment dispatched for the STC militia to fight its battle against the hard boyz of the "First Military Region" affiliated with Islah Party in the districts of Hadhramaut.

In March 2011, al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula declared the governate an Islamic Emirate after seizing control of the region. The New York Times fastidiously reported that those in control, while Islamic hard boyz, are not in fact al-Qaeda, but something else that looks, tastes, smells, and acts the same.
