Saudi Arabia expels STC militia from most important training camp in Aden

ADEN, Jan. 09 (YPA) – Saudi forces expelled on Monday the UAE-backed Southern Transitional Council (STC)’s militia from one of the most important training camps in Aden city, southern Yemen.

According to informed sources, the STC militia left the camp that belongs to the STC’ president, based on directives from the command of the Saudi forces present in Al-Buriqa camp, to be the headquarters of the Ministry of Defense of the government backed by the Saudi-led coalition.

The Saudi forces worked to secure the camp located in the Al-Buriqa area, west of Aden, under the pretext of starting maintenance and restoration work for the buildings, after the military parade that the militia carried out in early January, the sources explained.

Saudi Arabia has worked to reduce requirements for the UAE-funded militia from Dhalea and Lahj provinces.
