[ADEN - SABA
An authorized official in the Yemeni government stated that His Excellency President Dr. Rashad al-Alimi, Chairman of the Presidential Leadership Council (PLC)—Commander in- Chief-- was briefed along with a number of Council members and members of the National Defense Council on the situation in Hadramaut governorate, including the hostile military operations of the Transitional Council in recent hours, and the grave violations against innocent civilians in the governorate.

The source considered that this ongoing escalation since the beginning of this month constitutes a clear violation of the transitional phase frameworks, including the Declaration of the Transfer of Power and the Riyadh Agreement, undermining the mediation efforts led by the brothers in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, aimed at de-escalation, the withdrawal of the Transitional Council forces from Hadhramaut and Al-Mahrah governorates and handing over the camps there to the Forces of the Nation Shield and the local authority, in a way that ensures the restoration of security and stability in the two governorates.

Accordingly, the Chairman of the PLC, the Commander-in-Chief, submitted a request to the forces of the Coalition Supporting Legitimacy in Yemen to take all necessary military measures to protect innocent civilians in Hadhramaut governorate and to support the armed forces in enforcing calm and safeguarding the efforts of the Saudi-Emirati mediation.
He also reiterated his call to the leadership of the Transitional Council to prioritize the general interest of the Yemeni people, maintain unity and refrain from further unjustified escalation in the eastern governorates.
