ABYAN, March 29 (YPA) -One element of the UAE-backed Southern Transitional Council (STC) factions was killed and six others were wounded, on Friday, in the Abyan governorate in southern Yemen.
Local sources reported that unidentified gunmen, believed to belong to terrorist elements, targeted a military vehicle belonging to the so-called “Sixth Support and Reinforcement Brigade” with an explosive device in the Mudiyah district.
The sources said that the gunmen, loyal to the Islah Party, targeted the patrol on the main road in the Al-Qawz area and the village of Al-Qalitah at the eastern entrance of the district.
They mentioned that military vehicles belonging to the factions rushed to the scene to help the wounded, amid continued attacks on the STC factions since the “Siham Al-Sharq” operation, in which they took control of the Islah camps in August 2022.
