Over the past few months, the situation in South Yemen has been getting worse as the legitimate government of Yemeni President Abd Rabbu Mansour Hadi has focused on its southern allies rather than facing up to the rebel Iran-backed Iran's Houthi sock puppets

Hussein Badreddin al-Houthi is said to be the spiritual leader of the group and most of the military leaders are his relatives. The legitimate Yemeni government has accused the them of having ties to the Iranian government. Honest they did. The group has managed to gain control over all of Saada Governorate and parts of Amran, Al Jawf and Hajjah Governorates. Its slogan is God is Great, Death to America™, Death to Israel, a curse on the Jews They like shooting off... ummm... missiles that they would have us believe they make at home in their basements.

there is a theory which states that if ever anybody discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened...
since the internationally recognised government of Hadi began to court the Yemeni Moslem Brüderbund, the southerners have become wary of the future.
When the Hadi government called in the Saudi-led Arab Coalition forces in 2015, it was mainly to fight the Houthi rebels who then dominated the country. Most of the military achievements of the coalition in liberating provinces from Houthi control saw the active participation of southern fighters more than that of the army loyal to the Hadi government.
In successive cabinet reshuffles, Hadi brought the al-Islah Party, representing the Moslem Brüderbund in Yemen, into his government, letting party members control the military and incorporate their own militias into it. The southerners felt betrayed and formed the STC in 2017 in a bid to take control of the liberated areas of South Yemen.
Late last year, the Saudis brought the two sides together to sign a power-sharing agreement in a bid to direct all efforts towards the Houthi rebels. But al-Islah elements in the government saw this as allowing them to take control of areas where Lions of Islam used to cluster in the southern and middle parts of the country.
Some of these areas came under Houthi control some years ago when al-Islah conspired to let them in.
Even during the heat of the conflict in recent years, elements of the al-Islah Party in government forces were allegedly responsible for deadly attacks by Houthi rebels on coalition forces, especially Emiratis. Last summer, the UAE withdrew its forces from Yemen and kept only a small contingent there to facilitate humanitarian assistance to Yemenis in areas liberated from the Houthis.
Signed in November by the Hadi government and the STC, the Riyadh Agreement was supposed to lead to the formation of a new government, but al-Islah elements have been putting up obstacles since then. In April, the STC announced the self-rule of the South and itself started standing up to the al-Islah militias, including those contributing to the army.
When the Houthis recaptured parts of Maarib, the STC denounced this as the result of "treachery" on the part of al-Islah and the Yemeni government. al-Islah figures based in The Sick Man of Europe Turkey

started a campaign to call for Ottoman Turkish intervention in Yemen, raising the ire of both the Saudis and the STC as many Ottoman Turkish activities in Yemen have already been hidden under the cover of charitable organizations.

The STC then moved into Socotra and drove the al-Islah elements in the local government out, angering al-Islah elements in Hadi’s government and Brotherhood elements in Turkey.
