Hadramaut tensions rise over bin Habrish return and STC headquarters siege

Tensions are escalating in Hadramaut, Yemen, involving both tribal groups and political organizations. The Al-Hirmoom tribes have issued a one-week ultimatum to central and local authorities, demanding the immediate and unconditional return of Amr bin Habrish, the first deputy governor of Hadramaut and head of the Hadramaut Tribal Alliance. The tribes claim that bin Habrish and his delegation, along with his family, are being prevented from returning from Saudi Arabia. They warned that all options remain available if the obstacles to his return are not removed within the week.

Simultaneously, the Southern Transitional Council (STC) in Hadramaut has condemned an attempted storming of its headquarters in Mukalla by a military force. The STC reported that military vehicles have continued to besiege the office, describing the move as a dangerous escalation intended to intimidate political leaders and prevent a planned mass rally commemorating the 55th anniversary of the Southern Army. The STC holds local authorities and security apparatuses responsible for the safety of its members and activists.
