Reports of Yemeni Fighters Joining GNA as More War Crimes Are Reported

According to Middle East Monitor's Yemen News Portal, Turkey, which has been increasingly active in humanitarian outreach operations among Muslim Brotherhood controlled territories in Yemen is sending Yemeni mercenaries to Libya. Released intelligence reports indicated that approximately 200 Yemenis arrived in Libya to fight with the Al-Wefaq and GNA.

As MeMo reports, militias affiliated with the Muslim Brotherhood's Al Islah party in Marib sent fighters to Turkey under the guise of receiving treatment in the hospital. From the hospital they were allegedly transferred to Tripoli.
