1/ Important new video from #alQaeda in #Yemen features Sa'd al-Awlaqi. This rare appearance suggests how desperate #AQAP is to reach local tribes in #Abyan & #Shabwa. The message is overwhelmingly against #UAE, not #Iran as some commentators have said. Iran is barely mentioned
2/ #AQAP's Awlaqi accuses #UAE of igniting inter-tribal conflict & humiliating locals. Lists UAE aims in #Yemen as:
▪️Occupation
▪️Implementing plans of Jews & Christians
▪️Stripping Yemenis of religion, ethics, ties
▪️Stealing resources
▪️Disrupting trade
▪️Creating dependency
3/ In the new #AQAP video (11.40mins), #AlQaeda's Awlaqi mentions "The Emirates" as the enemy at least 8 times (many more if we count pronouns). #Iran is mentioned only twice, and as a relative afterthought following other enemies: UAE, Jews, Christians, America + henchmen.

There are so many things to discuss about this battle in Qifa and Yakla against AQAP and ISIS terrorists. Yemeni anti-aggression activists have been talking about all day long, describing it as one of the most decisive liberation ever in Yemeni revolutionary war since 2015.
The jihadi elements has long history of presence in NW #Bayda even before Saudi aggression started. At one time, these Wahhabis (migrated mostly from Marib) once captured Rada'a town in 2014 near Al Quraishyah district, but the new Houthi authorities retaken it after long battle.
You can read this old article from early 2015, recalling how Houthi Ansarullah rebels were fighting AQAP terrorists in Rada'a while the corrupt Hadi regime in Sanaa were sitting idle doing nothing to root out Wahhabi terrorism.

UAE-backed Southern Transitional Council (STC) declares state of emergency in #Aden #Lahj #Shabwa #Abyan #Dhale #Hadramout #Mahra #Socotra, announcing that they are taking over control all of southern provinces by establishing an independent rule from Hadi regime.
STC announcement comes after they barred Hadi officials from returning to visit Aden few days ago as well as a string of military rebellion against Hadi/Islah. Southern separatists believed that Hadi regime has failed to provide basic necessities and hence the need for self-rule.
It must be noted that contrary to some belief, STC doesn't controls all of southern provinces. Hadi/Islah forces currently still controls most of Shabwa (except the coastal part of Belhaf), Wadi Hadramout (northern part of Hadramout province including Seiyun), and Al Mahra.
