Yemen's separatist movement, backed by the United Arab Emirates, has vowed to continue its push for an independent South Yemen despite airstrikes they attribute to Saudi Arabia. The strikes targeted separatist positions following their recent territorial advances, escalating tensions with the internationally recognized government, which is supported by Saudi Arabia. While there are no immediate reports of casualties, the separatists insist that such military actions will not deter their efforts to restore what they consider their rightful state. The situation remains tense as Saudi Arabia signals possible further military intervention if negotiations do not succeed.
