ADEN, Yemen, Sept. 5-- Thousands of Yemenis gathered Thursday in the southern Yemeni port city of Aden to show their support for the anti-terror role played by the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in the war-torn country. The rally's organizer, the pro-secession Southern Transitional Council (STC), said in a statement that the rally aimed at "expressing gratitude for the UAE armed forces that firmly stand with the southern forces in confronting terror groups such as the Yemen-based al-Qaida branch and the Islamic State (IS) group." The event came days after "Yemeni Islamic political parties used their media outlets and launched a misinformation campaign against the UAE forces" operating in the war-ravaged Arab country, the STC said. |
