SANAA, Aug. 20 (YPA) – A separatist delegation of the so-called southern Transitional Council (STC) backed by the UAE headed to Saudi Arabia on Tuesday to participate in the Saudi-called dialogue with the exiled Hadi’s government, according to sources.

The sources said the delegation included five members led by Aidarous al-Zubaidi. The talks are expected to start on Wednesday.

The exiled Hadi’s government accused the UAE of supporting the armed rebellion by the separatist militias in taking over Aden and Abyan.
