ADEN, Nov. 17 (YPA) – Head of the Supreme Council of the Southern Revolutionary Movement, Abdul-Wali Al-Subaihi, was transferred to a hospital in Aden city, 4 days after his kidnapping in Al Madaribah district, west of Lahj.

Human rights sources revealed that the deterioration of Al-Subaihi’s health, after his kidnapping by the Saudi-funded Dera al-Watan factions last Wednesday in the district, which necessitated his transfer from the detention center to Aden to receive treatment.

The sources explained that Al-Subaihi was kidnapped in accordance with Saudi directives after his return from the Sultanate of Oman.
