[HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] The UK is intensifying its moves in international circles to push for the separation of southern Yemen ...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of... from the Republic of Yemen, and the latest of these moves is its attempt to pass a project for a "solution" in Yemen during today’s Security Council meeting, which was dropped from the Council’s agendas due to the opposition of a number of major countries.
According to diplomatic sources at the United Nations ...where theory meets practice and practice loses... , the British draft includes a proposal for economic and political agreements based on the two-state solution divided between the north and south, in a British attempt to push the Security Council to adopt the issue of the separation of southern Yemen.
British security experts held a meeting with security officials, headed by Abu Bakr Jabr, the deputy director of security affiliated with the UAE-backed Southern Transitional Council (STC).
Pro-STC media reported that the British delegation thanked the security forces of Aden for cooperating with them during the last period, stressing the continuation of meetings between the two parties during the coming period.
According to the sources, the British team was briefed on security arrangements and the situation in the city, especially in regards to receiving foreign diplomats in Aden, which is a prominent stronghold of the Transitional Council, which seeks the secession of southern Yemen.
According to observers, the visit of the British delegation to the city of Aden and the delegation’s tour of vital facilities to see the security situation in them, in addition to the delegation’s statements confirms that Britannia has already begun to receive the security file in the city of Aden.
By linking Britannia’s movements in international circles with its movements in the city of Aden, it is clear that Britannia is actively seeking to return to control the city of Aden, which was under British occupation until 1967.

Background. 1918: Shia imams declare a kingdom in North Yemen. Gain independence from the Ottoman Empire. 1960s: A military rebellion and six-year civil war; Saudi Arabia and Egypt backed opposite sides. Kingdom ended Yemen Arab Republic established.
1967: The British leave southern Yemen (Aden), People’s Republic of Southern Yemen created.
three years later it becomes the Marxist People’s Democratic Republic of Yemen, known as South Yemen, a client state of Moscow. Occasional clashes between North and South Yemen. 1985 20,000 Yemenis, most from north, battle Soviets in Afghanistan. 1990: Cold War end creates change and Communist subsidies to south Yemen end. The two 0 Yemens merge into one.
Now the south (with the Hadhramaut especially) seeks independence from a North Yemen a misbegotten piece of earth that no one in their right mind wants any part of it.
[The Nation (Pak)] In the latest instance of Pakistain Tehrik-e-Insaf ...a political party in Pakistan. PTI was founded by former Pakistani cricket captain and philanthropist Imran Khan. The party's slogan is Justice, Humanity and Self Esteem, each of which is open to widely divergent interpretations.... (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan ...aka The Great Khan, who is the lightweight's lightweight... receiving blanket relief from the country’s judiciary, the Islamabad High Court (IHC) Wednesday extended its orders against his arrest in further cases till May 31.
The development came during the hearing of PTI’s plea seeking details of all cases filed against Khan claiming that the PTI chief is booked in more than 100 cases.
The federal government — represented by the additional attorney general for Pakistain, the advocate general for Pakistain and the state counsel — requested time from the court to provide details of cases against the PTI chief.
Approving their request, the court adjourned the hearing till May 31.
On May 12, the cricketer-turned-politican was granted a blanket relief from different benches of IHC that not only barred the authorities from arresting him but also stayed his trial in the Toshakhana case until the second week of June.

[Rudaw] A maiden of tender years has been reunited with her family in the Kurdistan Region's Raniya town six months after being separated from her parents in Russia's Republic of Dagestan ...a formerly inoffensive Caucasus republic currently bedevilled by low-level Islamic insurgency, occasional outbreaks of separatism, ethnic tensions and terrorism, primarily due to its proximity to Chechnya. There are several dozen ethnic groups, most of which speak either Caucasian, Turkic, or Iranian languages. Largest among these ethnic groups are the Avar, Dargin, Kumyk, Lezgin, and Laks. While Russers form less than five percent of the population, Russian remains the primary official language and the lingua franca... Mina and her parents were put in jail in Dagestan while trying to reach Europe. Little Mina was taken to a child care centre due to her small age. Ten days later, the shelter's authorities called Mina's uncle and informed him that she was with them.
Mina, who is four years old, is now back in Raniya where she lives with her grandparents. She only speaks Russian and does not understand Kurdish at all.
"They had initially gone to Iran ...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate JewsZionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol... and then to Azerbaijan. From there, they had gone to the borders of Russia without a visa. Their smugglers had apparently told them that they would take them to Russia on a visa, but it was not the case. They had been forced to go on foot. Right at the border [of Dagestan], they were arrested [six months ago]. In the first city [of Dagestan] the child had been separated from her parents," Abdulwaheed Othman, Mina's uncle, told Rudaw's Abubakir Ismail of the family's journey.
Mina's grandparents are trying to teach her Kurdish or at least help her remember Kurdish words so they can easily communicate with her.
"I am calling on the authorities to help free Mina's parents so she could reunite with them. It has been six months since Mina was separated from her parents. Her uncle went there and brought her back home. He made a lot of efforts to make it there, to bring back Mina," Mahbooba Hamza, Mina's grandmother said.
Thousands of people, many of them Iraqi Kurds, with the help of Kurdish smugglers, every year trek the dangerous journey hoping to reach Western Europa ...the land mass occupying the space between the English Channel and the Urals, also known as Moslem Lebensraum... in search of jobs and opportunities they feel they cannot access at home where unemployment is high and political tensions, corruption, and instability leave them with little hope for their future.
According to data from the association of the returned migrants colonists from Europe, towards the end of 2022 and around the beginning of 2023, 19,200 people left the Kurdistan Region for Europe. Of this number 2,300 of them are from Raniya and its surrounding areas.
[Shafaq News] On Wednesday, the Iraqi Border Guard Command announced that it has successfully secured approximately 1,500 kilometers of the border shared with Iran.
This ongoing effort aims to enhance border security and promote stability in the region. That's raycisssss!
National Security Adviser Qassem al-Araji led a delegation comprising officials from security services and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs during their visit to Erbil. They were received by Rebar Ahmed, the Kurdish Minister of Interior, as well as the directors of the security services in Erbil and Sulaymaniyah.
During the visit, the Commander of the Border Forces provided a comprehensive overview of the measures the Ministry of Interior implemented to ensure the security of the 1,493-kilometer-long Iraqi-Iranian border. These measures are aimed at preventing illegal activities and strengthening border control.
Additionally, Minister Ahmed presented an overview of the Kurdistan Region's efforts regarding the security agreement between Iraq and Iran. These efforts emphasize collaboration and joint initiatives to maintain a secure and stable border region.
Efforts to secure the remaining stretch of the border will continue, focusing on enhancing cooperation and coordination between the relevant security agencies.
The successful security of the border with Iran ...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979.

Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol... is of utmost importance for Iraq's national security, as it prevents the infiltration of illegal activities such as smuggling and unauthorized movement of individuals.

Issue BB guns to all Israelis along the border who want ‘em, and add some snipers to take out the launch teams.
[IsraelTimes] As police make final preparations for tense nationalist parade Thursday through Old City, Ben Gvir says priority is ’complete freedom of movement for Jews throughout Jerusalem’
Paleostinian terror group Hamas, a regional Iranian catspaw, threatened Israel Wednesday against holding the Jerusalem Day Flag March, as authorities were finalizing their preparations for the annual volatile event in Jerusalem’s Old City planned for Thursday.
"The Zionist Flag March will not pass, and the response will inevitably come," said senior Hamas official Salah al-Bardawil in a statement.

The report, based on an analysis of satellite photos, shows Iranian tankers docking at Latakia port 17 times during that period.
The report values the oil at more than $1 billion.
The deliveries violate both US oil sanctions on Iran and sanctions on the regime of Syrian dictator Basher Assad.
Haaretz says the deliveries are done by "ghost ships" that sail without proper identification.

So, no realtime monitoring?
Have the 'ghost ships' been identified for fleet culling?
