UAE-backed separatists take over entire Abyan coastal strip
[HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] The UAE-backed Southern Transitional Council (STC)’s militias on Saturday took control of the entire coastal strip of the Abyan
...a governorate of Yemen. The region was a base to the Aden-Abyan Islamic Army terrorist group until it dropped the name and joined al-Qaeda. Its capital is Zinjibar. In March 2011, al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula declared the governate an Islamic Emirate after seizing control of the region. The New York Times fastidiously reported that those in control, while Islamic hard boyz, are not in fact al-Qaeda, but something else that looks, tastes, smells, and acts the same.

province, south of 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...
Local media said that the so-called "security belt" militia of the STC in "Delta" areas had deployed on the international line and the coastal strip extending to Ahwar district.

The sources confirmed that, after their spread, the security belt militia began combing the eastern district of Ahwar until "Al-Arqoub" mountain overlooking Shuqra area.

In the context, a statement issued by the central operations of the "security belt" militia said: "The redeployment process started from receiving the first security point from Shabwah direction after combing and securing the city and al-Qasha’a point according to the deployment plan for the southern forces on the coast of Abyan."

The "Siham al-Sharq" operation will continue until the province is cleansed of terrorist elements, as the statement said.

It is worth noting that this operation, which was launched by Aidarous al-Zubaidi, president of the STC and member of the "Riyadh-formed Presidential Council" headed by Rashat al-Alimi, is still continuing despite the issuance of a decision by al-Alimi to stop this operation.
