The Minister of Transport in the government of the Yemeni fugitive former president , Hadi, “Saleh al-Jubwani, a violent attack on ” Tariq Afash, “and describes his forces ,backed by the UAE , as” militias “

“The Tariq militias will only be a poor version of the belts and the tribal elites in the south. We regret to see in the north those who repeat the gloomy experience in the south,” al-Jubawani said in a tweet on his Twitter account.

It is worth noting that the minister and a number of ministers of Hadi government accused the UAE forces of occupying the territory of Yamna and stands behind the support of the components and people of Tareq Afash and the so-called Southern Transitional Council, which does not recognize the so-called “legitimacy”.

Tariq Afash is the nephew of the late Ali Abdullah Saleh, the despot who ruled as president of Yemen from 1990 until 2011, and was killed in December 2017 following his defection to the side of the Saudi and Emirati forces.

Vowing to avenge his uncle and continue his path of defection, Afash offered his services to the UAE forces and promised to defeat the National Salvation Government in Aden “within ten days”. However, after a series of heavy defeats in Taiz province, the paid fighters leader was allegadly summoned to the Emirates in order to answer for his failures.

Sources also indicate that the Afash mercenaries were armed with state of the art modern weaponry by their Emirati masters, but in many cases left behind their weapons on the battlefield or even sold them to traders after deserting.
