  • Internal Displacement Continues Amid Multiple Crises
    17 December 2012 YEMEN Internal displacement continues amid multiple crises In recent years, Yemen has simultaneously faced intermittent internal armed conflict in the northern governorate of Sa’ada, civil unrest and popular uprisings across the country, a resurgent separatist movement in the south and increasingly active Islamic militants in the south and elsewhere (International Crisis Group, 3 July 2012; OCHA, 17 August 2012; Chatham House, January 2012)1. This in the context of an already volatile and impoverished country with considerable development chal- lenges and pre-existing humanitarian needs (OCHA, June 2012; IRIN, 4 August 2011). The resulting political instability has further limited An internally displaced man settles along the corridor of 30 November Public the government's capacity to provide basic School, Aden, Yemen. (Photo: Pepe Rubio Larrauri/March 2012) services, contributing to increased humanitar- ian needs among vulnerable groups. Fighting between various factions - government, opposition, tribes and militants - has made these conditions worse among populations already chronically impoverished and resulted in continuing internal displacement in the northern, central and southern regions of the country. The UNOCHA estimates that there are more than 430,000 internally displaced people (IDPs) in Yemen, many of whom have been repeatedly displaced (OCHA, 19 November 2012; OCHA, 20 October 2012; OCHA, 4-12 June 2012). The main factors have been internal armed conflict and civil unrest, but disas- ters - including flash floods, drought and land erosion – have also contributedOCHA ( , 4-12 June 2012; UNHCR, May 2012).2 There are no reliable estimates for the number of people displaced by disasters, but in October 2008 flash floods in Hadramout and al-Mahra governorates forced nearly 25,000 people from their homes (WFP, 25 Novermber-6 December 2008; OCHA, November 2008; IRIN, 24 May 2009; IRIN, 6 November 2008).

  • Yemen's Fractured South: Aden, Abyan, and Lahij
    1/17/2020 Yemen’s Fractured South: Aden, Abyan, and Lahij Yemen’s Fractured South: Aden, Abyan, and Lahij acleddata.com/2019/12/18/yemens-fractured-south-aden-abyan-and-lahij/ Emile Roy, Luca Nevola December 18, 2019 In Yemen, more than five years of conflict have contributed to an extreme fragmentation of central power and authority and have eroded local political orders. Local structures of authority have emerged, along with a plethora of para-state agents and militias at the behest of local elites and international patrons. According to the UN Panel of Experts, despite the disappearance of central authority, “Yemen, as a State, has all but ceased to exist,” replaced by distinct statelets fighting against one another (UN Panel of Experts, 26 January 2018). This is the third and final report of a three-part analysis series (ACLED, 9 May 2019; ACLED, 31 May 2019) exploring the fragmentation of state authority in Southern Yemen, where a secessionist body – the Southern Transitional Council (STC) – has established itself, not without contestation, as the “legitimate representative” of the Southern people (Southern Transitional Council, 7 December 2018). Since its emergence in 2017, the STC has evolved into a state-like entity with an executive body (the Leadership Council), a legislature (the Southern National Assembly), and armed forces, although the latter are under the virtual command structure of the Interior Ministry in the internationally-recognized government of President Abdrabbuh Mansour Hadi. Investigating conflict dynamics in seven southern governorates, these reports seek to highlight how Southern Yemen is all but a monolithic unit, reflecting the divided loyalties and aspirations of its political communities.

  • Ansar Al-Sharia and Governance in Southern Yemen
    Ansar al-Sharia and Governance in Southern Yemen By Robin Simcox emen is one of the most impoverished nations in the middle East. It has also emerged as the most important front of the U.S.-led war against al-Qaeda (AQ) and its affiliates. Given that the Yemeni state’s in- ability to provide basic provisions and services is a key driver behind AQ’s growth, these two issues have become inextricably linked. YA war for territory between the Yemeni government and AQ’s Yemeni franchise, Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), has escalated since the start of the “Arab Spring” in 2011. Throughout the upheaval, the AQAP made significant territorial gains, especially in the Abyan and Shabwa provinces. In March 2011, al-Qaeda’s in- surgent wing Ansar al-Sharia (AAS) took control of the southern town of Ja’ar in Abyan.1 While the town’s fall to AQAP was significant, it was not a complete surprise. AQAP already had a strong base there; Ja’ar supplied the Afghan mujahideen with fighters in the 1980s, and remnants of the Aden Abyan Islamic Army already lived in the city. Two months later, AQAP took control of Zinjibar, Abyan’s capital. Shaqwa, in Shabwa province, was then captured in August 2011. The towns were subsequently declared Islamic “emirates.” Meanwhile, AQAP’s leadership remained entrenched in the mountainous territory of Azzan in Shabwa. AAS did not have to win a series of set piece battles with the army to gain control of these towns. As Barbara Bodine, the former U.S.

  • Yemen: Fear of Failure
    European Multinationals briefing paper Yemen: Fear of Failure Ginny Hill Middle East Programme | November 2008 | MEP BP 08/03 Summary points Yemen presents a potent combination of problems for policy-makers confronting the prospect of state failure in this strategically important Red Sea country. It is the poorest state in the Arab world, with high levels of unemployment, rapid population growth and dwindling water resources. President Saleh faces an intermittent civil war in the north, a southern separatist movement and resurgent terrorist groups. Yemen’s jihadi networks appear to be growing as operating conditions in Iraq and Saudi Arabia become more difficult. The underlying drivers for future instability are economic. The state budget is heavily dependent on revenue from dwindling oil supplies. Yemen’s window of opportunity to shape its own future and create a post-oil economy is narrowing. Western governments need to work towards an effective regional approach with the member states of the Gulf Cooperation Council, in particular Saudi Arabia. Future instability in Yemen could expand a lawless zone stretching from northern Kenya, through Somalia and the Gulf of Aden, to Saudi Arabia. Piracy, organized crime and violent jihad would escalate, with implications for the security of shipping routes, the transit of oil through the Suez Canal and the internal security of Yemen’s neighbours. www.chathamhouse.org.uk Yemen: Fear of Failure 2 e g a p Introduction Yemen’s location on the southern edge of the The Arabian Peninsula’s first democracy stands at a Arabian Peninsula means that it acts as a buffer zone crossroads.
