Aden and southern governorates are witnessing security chaos, and almost daily crimes, under the control of the forces of US-Saudi aggression and Saudi-Emirati occupation. They witness increasing of assassinations involving military security leaders, religious and social tendencies, kidnapping, bombings and clashes between militants fighting for influence among them.
The United Nations confirmed that the security chaos in the southern governorates has become a source of concern for humanitarian workers. Deputy Director of Operations, Ghada Mudawi, assured the Security Council, Tuesday, that the lack of security is a source of concern for workers, who are increasingly trying to steal cars, kidnappings and other attacks.
Mudawi called on the Saudi-backed government in Aden, to immediately release its five employees, who have been kidnapped in Abyan governorate since last February, in addition to two it claimed were “detained” in Sana’a.
A number of workers in international organizations were subjected to interruption, kidnapping and looting of their vehicles in most of the districts of Abyan, in addition to areas in Al-Dhalae and Tur Al-Baha in Lahj.
