New Group of UAE-Backed STC Officers Defect to Saudi-Funded Militias
[HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] A new group of officers from the UAE-backed Southern Transitional Council (STC) has defected and joined the recently Saudi-funded "Dera al-Watan forces" (Shield of the Homeland) in 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...
This was reported by Yemen News Portal, based on testimonies of local sources.

According to sources, a number of Security Belt officers in the al-Anad sector in restive Lahj
... a Yemeni governate located in the southwestern corner of the Arabian Peninsula. It is the stomping grounds on the southern secessionist al-Harak movement
province in defected and joined the Shield of the Homeland forces.

The defected officers identified as Muhammad Ali Murshid Nasser, Muhammad Salem Saleh, Nasser Ahmed Muhammad Medlaj. All of them are company commanders.

According to the sources, another group of the Security Belt left its camp in the city of Zinjibar, the center of the province, waiting for the approval of the Shield of the Homeland forces to join them.

The defection of the commander of the Security Belt in the Mansoura district of Aden, Ismail Ahmed al-Subaihi, yesterday encouraged his colleagues to leave their units and join the "Shield of the Homeland".

During the last period, Saudi Arabia
...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. Fifteen of the nineteen WTC hijackers were Saudis, and most major jihadi commanders were Saudis, to include Osama bin Laden. 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...
deliberately cut off the salaries of the STC militia at a time when it sought to pay the salaries of the "Shield of the Homeland forces" in double amounts in order to push the STC officers and soldiers to join the recently formed forces.
