News - Yemen: The US-Saudi aggression occupied Al-Mahra Governorate despite its distance from the war zone with the Army and the Popular Committees.

The coalition of aggression established in the capital of the governorate about 10 camps in a number of districts of Al-Ghaydah, in addition to the military base inside Al-Ghaydah Airport, which includes experts, soldiers, British and American military vehicles with heavy presence of Saudi guards.

The American, British, Saudi, and Emirati forces began to attract a large number of young men recruited by the Kingdom, and in November 2017, they were returned to Al-Ghaydah with military crews, each group commanded by a Saudi officer, while the rest of its members are Yemeni youths who were recruited and given military ranks.

Those forces tried to storm the airport campus, but were met with a great repulsion by the tribes of Al-Mahra, so that Saudi Arabia resorted to directing the Hadi government to issue orders to enable the Saudi forces to enter Al-Ghaydah Airport.

After negotiations with the Ghaydah tribes and receiving promises from the Saudi authorities to support them and provide services to the citizens of the city, the Saudi forces were able to enter the airport and control large parts of it, and that was the beginning.

A few days later, Saudi Arabia sent new reinforcements to the airport, and in 2018, it began creating military sites and allocating a hangar for four helicopters.

Ansarullah website, quoting private sources, confirmed that the Saudi forces present inside the airport began in April of the year 2018 to develop facilities inside the airport campus. The source pointed out that the US-Saudi aggression allocated part of the newly created area for the benefit of the American and British forces, pointing out that about four American officers arrived at the military base after the completion of the construction process.

The source said that when the US or British planes arrive at the site, the Saudi forces charged with guarding the team are withdrawn and taken away from the airport until the completion of the entry or removal of the equipment of each team.

The source confirmed to Ansarullah's website that at the beginning of the American, British and Saudi presence in Al-Ghaydah Airport, the number of their flights varied from two to three flights per day until it shrank and the helicopters were withdrawn.

The Security and Intelligence Service explained that the "Special Task Force Battalion" was established to attract elements from the northern provinces for the intelligence work of the British and American invaders.

It also indicated that the cell members were recruited by American intelligence officers, before being transferred to work with British intelligence officers to complete the hostile role against the Yemeni people.

The Security and Intelligence Service stated that the members of the spy cell joined the so-called “Special Missions” battalion, led by Fayez Al-Muntasir, and took a military course in it.

It also pointed out that the members of the spy cell used advanced equipment and software by the American and British intelligence and intelligence services and training its members to work for their benefit.

In order to justify the American and British presence in the region and through their base at Ghayda Airport, preparations are being made to create justifications and motives in order to prepare the ground for foreign forces to enter the country.

On May 17, the British Maritime Trade Operations Authority announced that a commercial cargo ship was attacked near the port of Mukalla, without providing evidence for this.

Observers refute the British claim that its ship was targeted off the coast of Al-Mahra, as being part of efforts to occupy Al-Mahra and establish military bases.

Member of the national negotiating delegation, Abdul-Malik Al-Ajri, said that Britain is carrying out espionage activities on some Yemeni communications networks, and some submarine cables from southern governorates.

Several reports indicate that British forces seized the data of the Yemeni Telecom Company in an illegal activity, as a specialized British electronic unit monitored communications in the occupied governorates.
