Ma’rib city hit by new rounds of infighting between various mercenary groups
[HODHODYEMENNEWS] The city of Ma’rib on Sunday witnessed new confrontations between the tribe of Governor loyal to Saudi-led coalition, Sultan al-Arada and factions supported by the Southern Transitional Council (STC).

Southern media, quoting tribal sources, reported that festivities, described as the most violent mostly peaceful, erupted between the gunnies of "Al Fujij" tribe, to which al-Arada belongs, and gangs affiliated with his most prominent opponent, Mufreh Buhaibah, commander of the so-called "Bayhan axis".

The confrontations erupted after groups loyal to Buhaibah and have just come from al-Anad base in restive Lahj

Buhaibah’s move indicates his efforts to begin encircling the strongholds of Sultan al-Arada, who is still detained in Saudi Arabia

Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman quietly folded that tent in 2016, doing terrible things to the guys running it, and has since been dragging the kingdom into the current century...
