BEIRUT, LEBANON (4:20 P.M.) – On Friday, the U.A.E.-backed Southern Transitional Council forces stormed Hadibo, the center of the historical Socotra Island.

A source in the local authority of Socotra governorate told Sputnik Arabic that forces loyal to the Transitional Council, including defectors from the Yemeni army, launched an attack on military and security forces in the Haybak area at the western entrance to the city of Hadib, the center of Socotra, after which they managed to advance and control the security headquarters.

He added that the forces of the Transitional Council advanced to the vicinity of the Hadibo Security Administration and the city’s port, amid violent confrontations with forces from the Yemeni army and security.

In this context, the Saudi duty force (808) is in contact with the transitional council forces and government forces to stop the confrontations between the two parties.
