00:00In Yemen tonight, the power struggle between Saudi-backed and UAE-backed forces has entered

00:21a new and dangerous phase. What we are seeing is not just a local battle. It is a deepening

00:28rift inside the Muslim world itself, a conflict where two major regional powers are now backing

00:36opposing Arab factions, and they are clashing on Yemeni soil. Over the last week, UAE-backed

00:45separatists, the Southern Transitional Council, have rapidly advanced across Hajimout and

00:51al-Mahra. These are not small, remote provinces. They make up half of Yemen's land mass and

00:59hold a majority of the country's oil reserves. Their advance caught Riyadh off-guard. And in

01:07response, Saudi Arabia has moved a column of troops toward the east. A clear message to

01:13Abu Dhabi, this is a red line. The Saudi-backed tribal forces in Hajimout, long considered

01:22a reliable ally for Riyadh, are now being overrun by militias supported, financed and armed by

01:30the UAE. Tribal leaders have publicly accused Abu Dhabi of violating Saudi-supervised agreements

01:38and stoking a direct confrontation inside the Muslim world.

01:43The message from the tribes is blunt. They say the UAE is fully responsible for the escalation.

01:52On the ground, the UAE-backed forces are acting with speed and confidence. On December 2nd,

01:59they launched a major operation called the Promised Future. Within hours, they claimed the strategic

02:06city of Siyan, key military bases, and important oil sites. The Saudi-aligned government calls this

02:14an armed insurgency. The UAE-backed factions argue it is a move to restore security. But make no mistake,

02:23this is a struggle for power, territory, and control of the Muslim world's periphery.

02:29Riyadh has now dispatched a senior figure, Mohammed-Obaid al-Qahtani, to negotiate, pressure, and if

02:38necessary, confront the UAE's militias. Saudi officials have warned that no foreign-backed

02:46forces will be allowed to enter Hajimout. The UAE-backed council responded by, moving even closer

02:55to oil facilities. This is a rare moment where two major Gulf powers, both Muslim, both Arab, are advancing

03:03competing armies and competing visions within another Muslim country. The result? A fragmented Yemen,

03:12a deepening power vacuum, and a growing sense that the Muslim world is turning inward, fighting itself

03:20through proxies and allies. Local populations feel trapped between Saudi influence, UAE ambitions,

03:29and their own fractured leadership. And with sit-ins called across Aden, Mukalla, and Al-Qahtani,

03:37the push for separation is gaining momentum, further pulling Muslim communities against one another.

03:44As Saudi-backed and UAE-backed forces edge closer to direct confrontation, Yemen has once again

03:52become the battlefield for a deeper struggle. A struggle for power, influence, and the future

03:59of unity in the Muslim world. The fighting is still escalating.
