STC militiamen break into weapons market in Aden  

ADEN, Oct. 17 (YPA) – militiamen affiliated with the UAE-Backed Southern Transition Council (STC) broke into a local popular weapon market on Wednesday, forcing several shops to shut down and confiscated dozens of heavy arms in the southern port city of Aden, residents said.

The move came after members of the Saudi-backed rival Islamic Islah party (Muslim Brotherhood) have been seen buying arms in the market in al-Shiekh Othman district.
