The Yemeni government has issued a strong condemnation of the recent assassination of Dr. Abdulrahman Al-Shaer, a prominent leader of the Islah Party, in Aden, the country’s temporary capital. Officials characterize this incident as a significant escalation that poses a threat to the security and stability of the city.
In a statement to the Yemeni News Agency (Saba), Minister of Information Moammar Al-Eryani expressed that targeting any citizen or political figure undermines the state’s obligation to protect all its citizens. He described the assassination as a grave violation of the rule of law and public order.
Al-Eryani elaborated that this crime is part of a broader pattern aimed at disrupting stability within the region. He warned that such actions seek to reintroduce chaos and impose conditions that are beyond the state’s control, thereby threatening social peace and eroding public trust. He emphasized that attacks on political figures, irrespective of their affiliations, could lead to wider assaults on various groups, necessitating a unified national response.
The Minister reassured the public that the government will not tolerate any attempts to destabilize security or transform Aden into a chaotic battleground. He affirmed that security and military forces, in collaboration with local authorities, will take full responsibility for maintaining order. They will intensify efforts to investigate the circumstances surrounding the assassination, pursue the perpetrators, and ensure they are brought to justice.
This commitment aims to reinforce the state’s authority and preserve security and stability in Aden, a vital symbol of the state and its institutions. The government’s firm response underscores its dedication to upholding the rule of law and ensuring the safety of its citizens. As investigations progress, officials remain vigilant in their efforts to restore peace and order in the region.
