Dhalea witnesses military tension between pro-coalition factions

DHALEA, May 10 (YPA) – Dhalea province, in southern Yemen, has witnessed military tension between the so-called “security belt” elements of the UAE-backed Southern Transitional Council (STC) and the Islah Party militia loyal to the Saudi-led coalition, local sources reported on Tuesday.

The sources explained that the Islah militia mobilized its fighters to the city of Moris and Qa’taba city, hours after the security belt gunmen took down pictures of “Salim Al-Masn,” leader of the so-called “Juban resistance” who was shot dead by the STC elements during the attack carried out by al-Qaeda members on the STC headquarters in “Hokla” area in Dhalea.
