The UAE-backed Al-Amaliqa Brigades militants continued on Thursday, for the second day in a row, to carry out a campaign of raiding and looting of homes in Usaylan district in Shabwah province, eastern Yemen.

Local residents in Shabwah said that the Al-Amaliqa militants raided and stormed the house of Abdulrab Laakab, who had been appointed by the exiled Hadi government as commander of the Special Forces in Shabwah, and looted it.

Activists on social media circulated video clips showing the leaders of the Al-Amaliqa militants in front of Laakab’s home before attacking it.
