New armed clashes break out between Saudi-backed and UAE-backed mercenaries in Taiz
2022-11-19
[HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] Armed confrontations renewed Thursday between the Saudi-backed Islah factions and UAE-backed militias, in the center of Taiz governorate, southern Yemen
...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of...
Sources confirmed that the festivities broke out between members belonging to the governor of the UAE-backed and the leader of the Congress Party, Nabil Shamsan, and the button men of the leader of the Islah Party, Ghazwan al-Mikhlafi, in the city center.

The sources pointed out that the festivities resulted in the injury of four button men, indicating that the confrontations are continuing between the two parties, amid a state of fear and terror among the residents of the city.

This came, after festivities broke out between the two parties during the early hours of Thursday, following a surprise attack by al-Mikhlafi’s button men targeting a new security checkpoint for Shamsan groups, which resulted in injuries and the destruction of a military vehicle in the al-Rawdah neighborhood, and the confrontations extended to the Zaid al-Mushki neighborhood.

The return of the festivities comes in the context of arrangements made by the UAE to impose its control over the Saudi-backed camps in the countryside of Taiz.
