Yemeni recruits arrested by Hafter’s forces in Libya

SANAA, June 8 (YPA) – The Libyan National Army led by Field Marshal Khalifa Haftar captured Arab recruits, including Yemenis, who were fighting in ranks of the Turkish-backed Government of National Accord forces in Libya.

Libyan activists broadcast videos of Arab recruits, including five Syrians and three Yemenis, who are being dragged into a detention facility after being stripped of their clothes.

One of them admitted that he was from Yemen from Taiz province and came to fight the rebels in Libya.

The Arab fighting group, including Yemenis, was captured after they were ambushed by Haftar’s forces near the Libyan city of Sirte, which is under control of by Haftar’s forces.

The incident reflects the polarization of Yemeni youth to fight abroad and the extent to which al-Islah party’s war traders have underestimated the lives of Yemeni youth.

They are thrown into losing wars abroad, the price of their innocent lives. While the merchants of war and recruitment brokers from the party make a lot of money in real estate in Turkey and Cairo, which in the latest Turkish statistics amounted to about 103 billion dollars Yemeni real estate in Turkish cities.
