Former Minister of Transport in the coalition-backed Hadi puppet government, Saleh al-Jabwani, has accused Hadi’s Prime Minister of colluding with the UAE-backed Southern Transitional Council (STC) militias in storming the Presidential Palace of al-Ma’asheeq in Aden, calling for the formation of a new cabinet.
“Maeen Abdul-Malik’s complicity with the Emirati militia, in failing to apply the [Riyadh Agreement’s] military and security part, led to this shameful result,” Saleh al-Jabwani wrote on Twitter, referring to the recent storming of the presidential palace.
تواطؤ معين عبدالملك مع المليشيا الإماراتية ومجلسها الإنتقالي في عدم تنفيذ الشق العسكري والأمني أدى اليوم لهذه النتيجة المخزية بإقتحام قصر المعاشيق وطرد الحكومة.. يجب طي صفحة إتفاق الرياض وتشكيل حكومة جديدة تقوم بواجباتها تجاه كل بقعة في اليمن بما في ذلك إعادة عدن لحضن الشرعية.

“The Riyadh Agreement should be ended, and a new government should be formed to assume its duties for every place across Yemen, including the restoration of Aden,” Jabwani said.
Al-Ma’asheeq Palace, in which the Hadi puppet government is seated, was stormed by angry protesters who demanded the improvement of basic services and the payment of salaries on Tuesday.
