As mentioned earlier, certain Saudi-backed National Shield Forces (NSF), led by Salafi commanders but composed mostly of local southern fighters, are now raising the old PDRY (South Yemen) flag adopted by the STC. This is notable because most NSF units traditionally fly only their own force flag rather than...

Eastern #Yemen | UAE-backed Southern Transitional Council المجلس الانتقالي الجنوبي (STC) forces have reached Al-Ghayda in Al-Mahra after several days of negotiations with the National Shield Forces (NSF). One of the commanders of this unit is Brigadier General Fadhl Ba Besh, a former Special Security Forces officer from Abyan under عبدربه منصور هادي. He now leads one of the STC’s special forces units in Aden. Meanwhile, the Saudi-backed NSF continues to move large troop formations from Lahij, Aden, and the Wad’iah border crossing toward Hadramawt’s Wadi and Desert Districts. What is clear is that STC checkpoints on the N4 and N5 have not attempted to block or slow this NSF mobilization. The opposite is also true: NSF checkpoints are allowing STC forces to pass. In addition, some, though not all-NSF units are seen carrying the former South Yemen flag, which is also used by the STC. Altogether, it’s becoming clear that the NSF and STC are coordinating closely to avoid direct confrontations or clashes. Will this passive coordination hold? Time will tell.

Despite the defeat and dissolution of the Southern Transitional Council (STC) after Saudi Arabia's 🇸🇦 offensive, South Yemen 🇾🇪 civilians continue to protest. The STC was the UAE 🇦🇪 backed militia that was controling part of South Yemen and launched a large offensive that nearly managed to merge the pro-saudi internationnaly recognized Yemen and the STC into a single state in late december 2025. Since Yemen is already cut between the north (Houthis rebels, shia muslim) and the south/east (STC, gov., sunni muslim), part of the southern population wanted to revive South Yemen/South Arabia state., which was already independant between 1967 and 1990. When the STC launched its offensive, it didn't face any large resistance and was welcomed by part of the population. However, the situation quickly reversed when Saudi Arabia and Yemen's army intervened and destroyed in a few days the dreams of independence of the pro-UAE STC. However, the population continues to widely protest in most of South Yemen's cities, calling for independence. For now, this is not the KSA's priority since it would prefer a unified state to two Yemeni states at its southern border. A pro-Iran and pro-Emirati state at its southern border would have been a nightmare for Riyadh...

#Yemen It appears that the Saudi-backed @direalwatany National Shield Forces (NSF) are beginning to recover from the initial shock caused by the UAE-backed المجلس الانتقالي الجنوبي and their military expansion into Hadramawt and Mahra in eastern Yemen. Just as the NSF’s 2nd Division took control of the 23rd Mechanized Brigade’s base in Al-Abr, the NSF under the command of Brigadier General Abdullah bin Sadiq al-Mahri has now taken over the base near the Nishtun seaport. Their presence also extends to Al-Ghaydah Airport. These three locations, where the NSF is currently deployed, hold significant strategic importance for Saudi Arabia. It seems that ongoing negotiations and new arrangements are taking shape at this time.

The situation in Al-Mahra Governorate is unclear. The southern forces that were previously based there have essentially pledged loyalty to the Southern Forces Command of the Southern Transitional Council المجلس الانتقالي الجنوبي (STC). At the same time, there has been an increased mobilization of the National Shield Forces قوات درع الوطن (NSF) in Al-Mahra. The first NSF wave took control of positions where Saudi forces had been active, including Nashton Port and Al-Ghaydah Airport. However today, the NSF started securing key government buildings. For the moment, the border posts with Oman in Sarfait and Shahan continue to fly the southern flag, and the borders remain open. It would not be surprising, however, if they were closed given the ongoing security turmoil. In short, the situation in Al-Mahra remains unresolved. It is still unclear which side will emerge as the dominant security and military force: the Saudi-backed National Shield Forces or the UAE-backed Southern Transitional Council forces.

Secretary-General of the UN António Guterres rides out to the defense of the Muslim Brotherhood in Yemen as expected. After forces of the Southern Transitional Council took control of most of the Hadrhamaut and Al Mahra governates earlier this month, from the PLC, the internationally recognized government of Yemen which includes the Al-Islah Party (the Muslim Brotherhood branch of Yemen) Guterres now warns that the STC advance will cause ”wider escalation and further fragmentation.” The STC issued a statement hitting back at Guterres talk of “fragmentation,” stressing that South Yemen used to be a sovereign state and will soon become one again: ”South Yemen is one indivisible geographic and political unit, historically and legally a unified entity, not a collection of separate regions. Fragmentation narratives, like attempts to detach Hadramout or Al-Mahra as "exceptions," are destabilizing, dividing society and weakening collective stability against extremism. Hadramout and Al-Mahra remain core to South Yemen—politically, socially, and geographically. Ignoring this reality distorts history and misrepresents local identity. We reject "buffer zones" or special-status arguments, which prolong external control rather than safeguard populations. The demand for independence is grassroots-driven, fueled by decades of protests, sacrifices, and broad social alignment—not elite agendas. Restoring a unified South Yemen is vital for combating terrorism, as unity eliminates power vacuums that extremists exploit, ensuring regional security and peace”

UAE-funded activities are shutting down on the Yemeni island of Socotra. Circulated videos shows the dismantling of a site that was intended to host the UAE’s annual Sheikh Zayed Heritage Festival on the island. There are also reports that Emirati-linked business activities, particularly in the fisheries sector, as well as UAE-based travel agencies operating in Socotra, are closing down. These developments follow a decision by Yemen’s Saudi-backed, internationally recognized government to halt all direct maritime commercial shipping and airline traffic from the UAE to the island. To the best of my knowledge, there are currently no UAE military forces stationed on Socotra. The only foreign military presence on the island is a Saudi military task force operating alongside local forces. These local units have historically been aligned with the Southern Transitional Council المجلس الانتقالي الجنوبي العربي, but like other southern forces across South Yemen, they are now pledging loyalty to the Saudi-backed Yemeni government.

GOOSEBUMPS. In 1992, during the Springboks' first match after readmission to international rugby, against the All Blacks in South Africa. The African National Congress (ANC) had requested that "Die Stem," the national anthem, not be played or sung and that the old South African flag not be displayed, as part of conditions for allowing the match to proceed. Despite this, the South African Rugby Football Union (SARFU) ignored the request, and "Die Stem" was sung by fans, with old flags waved, causing significant controversy. THIS IS OUR CULTURAL STRUGGLE SONG AND WE WILL SING IT WHEN WE PLEASE. ONS VIR JOU.

“This is our flag. We are proud British Muslims” 🇬🇧 A Mosque in Birkenhead that found a union flag had been tied to its railings during the night decided to fly it from its own window as a response to the far-right conspiracy that Muslims hate the UK and its national flags. Ibraham Syed, from The Wirral Deen centre on Borough Road, told the BBC he believed the placing of the flag outside the centre - which includes a mosque - had been "intended to cause offence.” "We thought a strong and powerful response would be to show that this is our flag and we are proud British Muslims," he said.

🇬🇧 Jeremy Vine Caller Defends British and English Flags as Guest Claims It Means “Exclusion” 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 The caller on Jeremy Vine hit the nail on the head. Councils rushing to ban the St George’s Cross during the World Cup are overwhelmingly run by Labour, Greens, and Lib Dems, the same groups that seem to view British identity with embarrassment or outright hostility. As he rightly pointed out: fly an EU flag, a Palestinian flag, or a trans pride flag and there’d be no talk of “community tensions” or “safety concerns.” Yet England’s own flag is treated as provocative. Jeremy Vine’s guest Marvyn Harrison’s claim that the flag has been “co-opted to mean exclusion” is absurd. This is the national flag of the country we live in. Flying it isn’t extremism; it’s basic pride in your own nation. We should be free to celebrate our country without being smeared. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

🇮🇱 Israel is fighting on 7 fronts. From the north to the south, from Gaza to Lebanon, from Yemen to Iran — we are under attack by a network of terror backed by the Iranian regime. But we are united. Determined. Resilient. We are not only defending our people — we are standing on the front line for the free world. This isn’t just Israel’s war. It’s a war against tyranny, extremism, and hatred. And we will win.

I seriously thought that the mass hysteria in Iceland couldn’t get any worse, but here we are. The Icelandic Church and the police is completely out of control and led by a bunch of retards. Two (or more) activists decided to paint the Icelandic flag colours over a progress flag on the church steps in Reykjavik and they react like somebody was murdered. And they are investigating this as a HATE CRIME. And there is no victim! The chairwoman of the Queer Organisation turns up with two flags to get some valuable TV minutes for free crying victim. Luckily, I think the average Icelander is now realising how crazy this is. Hopefully this INSANE reaction will backfire spectacularly!

Oliver is a man that will get things done. His statement on reforms flag policy 👇🏻 In advance of my meeting with Council Officers to discuss the official North East Lincolnshire Council Flag Policy - an issue that has generated considerable debate - I wanted to set out the Reform Group’s position clearly ahead of those discussions. We strongly believe the Council should not fly flags connected to political or campaigning causes, including Pride, disability, or International Women’s Day flags. In our view, this kind of political gesturing is unnecessary and divisive. We all unite under two flags, the Union flag and St George's Cross. Our preference is for the Council to fly flags that reflect our shared national identity and local heritage, including the Union Flag, the St George’s Cross, and flags recognising our area’s proud military and seafaring history and traditions. 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Welcome thoughts on this… 💬

The UAE-backed Southern Transitional Council المجلس الانتقالي الجنوبي’s response to Saudi demands for withdrawal from Hadramawt and Al Mahra, Eastern Yemen is now unmistakable. Rather than withdrawing, the STC is openly consolidating its presence through sustained mobilization of heavy weaponry, including tanks and artillery, alongside dozens of MRAPs, APCs, and technicals. This buildup appears less like routine force movement and more like a deliberate show of defiance, signaling a rejection of Saudi pressure and an intent to impose new facts on the ground. Tough ideas ahead. We are heading to scenario five! Read my five scenarios in the Basha باشا Substack article below 👇

Video: the People’s Democratic Republic of Yemen (South Yemen) prior to its unification with the Yemen Arab Republic (North Yemen) in 1990. Following unification, the southern regions have faced prolonged armed conflict, political instability, and the emergence of jihadist extremist groups. In response to these challenges, many residents of the former South Yemen now advocate for the restoration of an independent southern state. Recent military advances by forces aligned with the Southern Transitional Council have brought additional areas under their control, including parts of Al-Mahra and Hadramout governorates. This shift in territorial influence is likely to weaken several key actors, including the Houthi movement, Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, and the Somali militant group Al-Shabaab. A stable and strong entity in southern Yemen could therefore enhance security for the Gulf states while helping to safeguard international maritime routes through the Bab al-Mandab Strait and the Red Sea.

We didn’t come to Washington asking for handouts. We came with a strategy and a vision. As proud South Yemeni Americans, we made the case for a direct and strategic partnership—rooted in shared interests, mutual security, and regional stability. The reality on the ground speaks for itself: The Southern Transitional Council (STC) stands as the only organized and capable force with legitimacy, structure, and a proven track record—resisting Houthi expansion, countering terrorism, and securing vital global waterways. In a region full of uncertainty, actions speak louder than any theory. The frontlines of Yemen today lie along the pre-1990 North/South borders—because the South never stopped defending its identity, and its strive for independence. Our message to Congress was clear and deliberate: Don’t overlook your most natural and capable partner in Yemen—and perhaps the region at large—the people of the South. What left the greatest impression was the sincere and constructive engagement we received from both chambers of Congress. There is a growing bipartisan recognition that the South presents a rare and timely opportunity—anchored in shared interests across national security, foreign policy, and humanitarian outreach. In a region as volatile as the Middle East—especially with mounting tensions between Iran and Israel—such opportunities must not be overlooked. This wasn’t merely an advocacy event. It was the beginning of a strategic era. And it won’t be the last. #SouthYemen

We constantly have to apologize because we are white. The whole South Africa is built on racial resentment "new racism."

Some countries in the Middle East are willing to see a Muslim Brotherhood–aligned government rule Yemen because its main concern is countering the Shia Houthis. What Yemen looks like afterward is not their priority. The UAE takes a different approach. For decades, it has focused on stability and control rather than jihadists experimentation. That is why it supports anti–Muslim Brotherhood, secular nationalist forces in Yemen. A leaked video conversation between a Saudi general, Mohammed al-Qahtani, and the director of Mukalla Port supports the UAE’s account. The exchange shows that the Emirati vehicles were unarmed, the recording raises so many questions.

To those raising the Palestinian flag, Where were you when ISIS was launched and beheaded tens of thousands of Arabs in Iraq, Libya, and Syria in the name of Islam? Why didn’t you take to the streets and raise their flags? Why didn’t you condemn the terror and call for a ”ceasefire”? Where were you when Arab dictators and terrorists killed hundreds of thousands of Arabs in Syria and Libya? Why didn’t you take to the streets and raise their flags? Why didn’t you condemn the terror and call for a ”ceasefire”? Where were you in the last decade when Saudi Arabia, backed by 8 Arab countries, killed 400,000 Yemenis, my own people? I didn’t see any of you take to the streets or raise the Yemeni flag. I did not see any of you condemning the terror and calling for a ”ceasefire” while Arab countries were slaughtering my own people. This must lead to some self-reflection. When millions of Arabs are slaughtered by other Arabs, you say nothing. But when 7 thousand of Arabs are killed by Jews defending their right to exist, you revolt, you get angry, you storm the streets in the East and the West, you raise the Palestinian flag, you condemn the terror, you call for a ceasefire, you turn the world upside down. Why is that? Why were you so silent then but SO LOUD now? Can it be that you are finally raising a flag and creating chaos because you only hate that the perpetrators are Jews? Because you obviously don't care when millions of Arabs are killed by other Arabs. Can it be that you storming the streets is just you venting out your hatred towards Jews? The same hatred we learned in our mosques and schools? You speak of ”numbers and proportionality.” But by the rules of proportionality, you should not be raising Palestinian flags. Unless, there is another agenda at play: Jew-hatred. Or as I would call it: Hatred.

Where were you when Arab dictators and terrorists killed hundreds of thousands of Arabs in Syria and Libya? Why didn’t you take to the streets and raise their flags? Why didn’t you condemn the terror and call for a ”ceasefire”? Where were you in the last decade when Saudi Arabia, backed by 8 Arab countries, killed 400,000 Yemenis, my own people? I didn’t see any of you take to the streets or raise the Yemeni flag. I did not see any of you condemning the terror and calling for a ”ceasefire” while Arab countries were slaughtering my own people. This must lead to some self-reflection. When millions of Arabs are slaughtered by other Arabs, you say nothing. But when 7 thousand of Arabs are killed by Jews defending their right to exist, you revolt, you get angry, you storm the streets in the East and the West, you raise the Palestinian flag, you condemn the terror, you call for a ceasefire, you turn the world upside down. Why is that? Why were you so silent then but SO LOUD now? Can it be that you are finally raising a flag and creating chaos because you only hate that the perpetrators are Jews? Because you obviously don't care when millions of Arabs are killed by other Arabs. Can it be that you storming the streets is just you venting out your hatred towards Jews? The same hatred we learned in our mosques and schools? You speak of ”numbers and proportionality.” But by the rules of proportionality, you should not be raising Palestinian flags. Unless, there is another agenda at play: Jew-hatred. Or as I would call it: Hatred.

The Curious Story of South Africa's UAZA South Africa is facing a threat to its sovereignty - one which originates, not from Washington DC or Tel-Aviv or Orania, but from Kiev. The Ukrainian Association of South Africa (UAZA), which purports to be an independently-run NGO focused on the Ukrainian diaspora in South Africa is hard at work meddling in the country's diplomatic affairs, sponsoring protests against its geopolitical allies, and even interfering in its local politics and national energy policy. UAZA, which is an affiliate of the Ukrainian World Congress (UWC), is part of a growing network of Ukrainian diaspora organisations whose origins lie in Ukrainian neo-nazi right wing nationalism, which purport to function as independent organisations, but actually work in close coordination with the Ukrainian government. While they are entitled to hold positions on local or international political issues relating to South Africa, these organisations are going well beyond the limits of South African law by attempting to astroturf internal political discourse in South Africa in a manner calculated to drag South Africa into a geopolitical dispute that is not its own. For The Spearhead, David Hundeyin explores this story.
