Saudi Coalition Attacking Yemen Breaks Up For Good

The Saudi Arabian blunder in Yemen is now in its FIFTH year. It has already become Saudi Arabia's version of Vietnam. The latest news is Saudi Arabia's coalition partners in their genocide against the Yemeni people are completely breaking up with Saudi Arabi. 

The UAE supports their mercenary group called the Southern Transition Council or STC. The STC has occupied Aden since August last year. 

Not only have they broken away from Saudi Arabia but the STC has now declared an autonomous zone in southern Yemen.  Meaning they will not allow Saudi backed troops entry into their area. Here is a snippet adapted from the BBC:

In this map above you can see that after five years the Yemeni Houthis control the largest portion of territory in Yemen, running almost fully north to south. The red coloured conflict zones are actually also under the Houthis.  This is Saudi Arabia's bungle.
