Violent tribal clashes leave several dead and wounded in Lahj province of Yemen
2023-05-18
[HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] Violent armed tribal festivities erupted on Wednesday in the Tor al-Baha district of the southern province of restive Lahj
... a Yemeni governate located in the southwestern corner of the Arabian Peninsula. It is the stomping grounds on the southern secessionist al-Harak movement
and resulted in deaths and injuries, including civilians.

Local media sources said that violent mostly peaceful festivities broke out between button men from the "Al-Atwin and al-Zifitah" tribes in the center of the Tor al-Baha market against the background of tribal vendetta cases.

The festivities resulted in the killing of three people and the injuring of six others, including civilians, who were transferred to Tor al-Baha Hospital for treatment.

It is worth noting that the Tor al-Baha district is living in a state of chaos and insecurity due to the spread of armed gangs that practice the crimes of banditry, looting, and killing against travelers and truck drivers, behind which are officers and recruits in the ranks of the UAE-backed militias.
