STC militia abduct wounded of Saudi-backed forces from hospitals in Mukalla

HADRAMOUT, Dec. 13 (YPA) – The UAE-backed Southern Transitional Council (STC) militia has abducted wounded individuals from hospitals in Mukalla, the capital of Hadramout governorate.

According to reports from Hadramout tribes, STC forces stormed hospitals in Mukalla last Tuesday and seized injured members of the Saudi-backed Hadramout Protection Forces and the Popular Resistance who were receiving treatment, and they took them at gunpoint to an unknown destination.

Hadramout Tribal Alliance has held the commander of the Second Military Region and the director of security and police in Hadramout fully responsible for the safety and lives of the abductees, describing the incident as “a crime adding to the series of violations” attributed to these factions against the people of Hadramout.
