Marib: commander of the First Special Tasks Brigade killed and several of his escorts injured by gunfire from tribal gunmen

Al Wadi District, Yemen · · Security · Developing · 2 sources

Brigadier Said bin Saleh Muaili al-Obaidi, commander of the First Special Tasks Brigade, was shot dead by armed tribesmen in the market at Bin Muaili station in the Al-Wadi district of eastern Marib governorate on Thursday. Local sources said the gunmen fired directly at him while he was with his escorts, and that the attack is likely linked to a tribal feud.

Marib is an oil- and gas-producing governorate in central Yemen, where forces of the internationally recognised government are stationed, amid a long-running conflict with the Houthi movement (Ansar Allah), which controls Sanaa and much of the north.
