| [HodhodYemen ...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of... News] On Tuesday, The UAE-backed Southern Transitional Council (STC) militia imposed on a suffocating siege on a site near Ma’ashiq Palace in Crater district in the port city of Aden, which is controlled by the Saudi-led coalition. The Yemeni Press Agency learned from its sources that elements of the so-called "anti-terrorism force" led by Shalal Shaya surrounded a site where about 6 officers from Taiz were present, adding that the officers were summoned to Aden by the president of the Riyadh-formed "Presidential Council," Rashad al-Alimi. The sources pointed out that a force loyal to al-Alimi tried to remove the officers, but Shaya’s elements rebuffed the force’s interference, threatening to blow up the situation without providing any other details on the names of the officers. |
