Al-Qaeda in Ma’rib province has on Sunday admitted to the death of three of its most prominent military leaders.
A statement issued by the organisation said that Amir Abu Haidara al-Adani was killed by Yemeni forces while participating in the fighting in the ranks of the Saudi-led coalition forces on the outskirts of Bayda province.
The statement praised what it described as “the long march of Abu Haidara al-Adani” in the fight against the forces of Sana’a, without referring to the date of his death.
The terrorist organisation also mourned two other Amirs of Al-Qaeda, who were killed during an attack that targeted the convoy of the commander of the Security Belt in Abyan province, Brigadier General Abdullatif Al-Sayed, on March 15th.
The terrorist movement had previously issued other obituary statements for leaders who were killed in Ma’rib, the latest of which was one issued on October 11, 2021, on the killing of Yasser Laakab Al-Omari, commander in the 156th Brigade loyal to the coalition, who was killed by the defenders of Yemen.
