News - Yemen: The Political Bureau of Ansarullah affirmed that the acts of road-blocking and abduction of travelers by occupation militias in Aden are immoral crimes.

This came in a statement condemning the kidnapping of Engineer Hisham Sharaf while he was en route abroad for medical treatment.

The statement described the abduction of the former Foreign Minister at Aden Airport as a criminal act of banditry, aimed at depriving citizens of their most basic rights.

It added, “What happened to Engineer Hisham Sharaf confirms that those ruling Aden are nothing more than criminal gangs implementing the agenda of the occupation,” calling for “his immediate release and for him to be allowed to travel and receive the medical care he urgently needs.”

The bureau called on international human rights organizations to “intervene urgently and fulfill their responsibilities concerning the abduction of Engineer Hisham Sharaf.”

In conclusion, Ansarullah’s Political Bureau warned the Emirati and Saudi occupation states and their affiliated gangs in Aden against “harming Engineer Sharaf or neglecting his critical health condition,” stressing that “all parties involved in his abduction bear full responsibility for the delay in his release.”

Southern Yemen, particularly areas under Saudi-Emirati occupation like Aden, is facing severe security and humanitarian deterioration. Amid internal power struggles between foreign-backed factions, incidents of kidnappings, assassinations, and unlawful detentions have sharply increased. Citizens suffer from economic collapse, unpaid salaries, and failing public services, prompting widespread protests demanding an end to foreign interference.

The abduction of engineer Hisham Sharaf highlights the growing lawlessness, echoing earlier cases such as the torture and killing of Abdulmalik al-Sanabani and the disappearance of students returning from abroad. These crimes reflect the broader chaos and lack of accountability in occupied regions, where armed militias operate unchecked and basic human rights are routinely violated.
