MAHRA, Sept. 27 (YPA) – Foreign forces celebrated at the occupied Ghaydah Airport in Al-Mahra province, “eastern Yemen,” the so-called “Saudi National Day,” while the coalition did not allow the people of the southern province to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the Yemeni revolution, September 26, during the past two days.
Local sources in the province stated that foreign forces participated in a number of Saudi soldiers and officers celebrating the National Day” of their country inside the Airport, which has been under Saudi occupation since the end of 2017.
The sources pointed out that the coalition militia in Hadramout kidnapped a number of young people who expressed their happiness at the greatness of the September 26 revolution in the streets of Mukalla city, the Hadramout provincial capital, during the past two days, and insulted the flag of the Republic of Yemen, amid silence by the Riyadh-formed Presidential Council, headed by Rashad al-Alimi, and the government of Maeen Abdul Malik, which claims its control on those provinces.
This came after the UAE-funded militia, Maeen Abdul-Malik, a number of ministers and military and security leaders loyal to the coalition prevented the celebration of the 60th anniversary of the September 26 revolution at its residence inside Ma’ashiq Palace in Aden, and they went to celebrate the revolution in Marib and Taiz, which are under the control of Islah Party.
Last May, the UAE militia banned the Al-Alimi Council and its government affiliated with Riyadh from celebrating in Aden the 32nd anniversary of the establishment of the Yemeni unity on May 22, 1990, and the flag of the Republic was taken down from the residence of “Tariq Afash” inside Ma’ashiq Palace, to leave at that time for the city of Mocha, west of Taiz.
The Saudi forces closed Al-Ghaydah Airport, which is far from the confrontations with the Sanaa forces, to civilian flights in November 2017, and turned it into a joint US-British-Israeli military base on the Arabian Sea.
