Aden Governor condemns continued attacks by transitional council militia on peaceful protesters in Aden
[30/ April/2025]
Sana'a - Saba:
The Governor of Aden, Tariq Salam, condemned the continued assaults and violations by the Transitional Council militia against peaceful protesters in Aden demanding the provision of basic services.

In a statement to the Yemeni News Agency (Saba), Salam pointed out that the repression, mass arrests, and use of force by the Saudi-Emirati occupation and its tools to suppress popular protests calling for essential services constitute a crime and a blatant violation of citizens' rights. He noted that the occupation and its proxies have turned Aden into a swamp of chaos, poverty, and destruction.

He stressed that the dire economic conditions faced by the people of the occupied southern provinces—due to the collapse of the currency exchange rate and the absence of essential services such as water and electricity—reflect the systematic policies of starvation and destruction employed by the occupation and its tools as a means to tighten their control over the occupied provinces.

The Governor of Aden warned against the continuation of these practices and violations, through which the occupation and its criminal proxies seek to humiliate the people of the occupied provinces and plunder their resources, which should have benefited the citizens who have endured years of injustice, oppression, and persecution.

He emphasized that the growing public awareness in the occupied provinces, particularly Aden, reflects the people's desire and aspiration for freedom and an end to the occupation's dominance, which has turned the southern provinces into a hotbed of chaos and terrorism.
