Islah Party pushes reinforcements towards UAE-controlled areas in Hadramout

HADRAMOUT, Jan.15 (YPA) – Tensions escalated in in Hadramout province, eastern Yemen, after the “First Military Region” loyal to Islah Party sent military reinforcements to the outskirts of the strongholds of the UAE-affiliated factions on the coast of Hadramout.

Local sources stated that the first military region pushed a battalion to the Wadi al-Ayn district, which is one of the strategic areas linking between the valley and the coast of Hadramout.

Dozens of Islah party militants deployed today, Saturday, on board military vehicles in the streets and entrances of Sayoun city, the sources added.

This comes nearly two days after the UAE-backed factions sent military reinforcements to Jathma camp near the city of Sayoun, the stronghold of the commands of the Islah Party militants and the Saudi forces in Yemen’s eastern regions.
