UAE Creates New Militia in Al-Mahra
The UAE has sought to establish a new militia in Mahra province, east of Yemen, under the name “Al-Mahra Shield Force,” similar to its militias in Shabwa and Hadramout provinces, YPA reported on Sunday.
Activists on social media circulated, during the past two days, an announcement of the so-called “Inclusive Council of the People of Mahra Province”, funded by the UAE, calling on the people of Mahra to join the “Al-Mahra Shield Force” starting from Sunday, February 27.
The announcement considered that the “Al-Mahra Shield” militia would be on the side of the local authorities and the Saudi-led coalition, far from the Hadi-government that the coalition claims that its war is for restoring it.
