Mercenary infighting erupts in northern border front

SAADA, June 23 (YPA) – During the past hours, fierce clashes erupted between groups of Saudi army mercenaries and coalition-backed militants in the axis of the Kitaf, leaving scores dead and wounded on the backdrop of delaying salaries and the expulsion of wounded militants from Saudi hospitals.

“A major rebellion took place within the ranks of the Saudi Army’s mercenaries in the so-called the Fatah Brigade and coalition militants in the Kitaf axis led by “Radad al-Hashemi”, because their salaries were not paid since four months and the expulsion of wounded militants from Saudi hospitals, the Media Center for Northern Fronts quoted sources as saying.

The sources reported that Saudi Arabia expelled wounded mercenaries before they complete their treatment entrusted them to Rasdad al-Hashemi, who in turn retuned them back to their homes and left them homeless, without medical treatment or unpaid. ”

A number of Saudi Arabian army mercenaries have complained earlier through social media about the “neglect and mistreatment they face and the expulsion of hundreds of them from time to time.

According to sources, “the members of the Axis have staged violent protests, burning groceries, restaurants, exchange shops, a number of tents and wooden houses belonging to the Saudi army and its mercenaries.”

“A military police force intervened to prevent protests but clashes have been reportedly broken out between the two sides, leaving almost 20 dead and many others wounded, most of them protesters, by military police,” the sources added.

“The clashes have lasted over the past two days in a rebellion against the leader of the Axis and the leadership of the Saudi-led coalition forces because of the difficult conditions of the recruits and the insults they receive,” the sources said.

Radad al-Hashemi is one of the leaders of al-Qaeda, who was in Damaj and graduated from Saudi Wahhabi Ideology, at the hand of sheikhs who were active there and received funding from the Saudi government.
