18 Abu Ghraib like prisons in southern Yemen

(AhlulBayt News Agency) - Past experience shows that those who welcome and cheer on the Gazan occupier to occupy his land and homeland will pay the price for the disaster that has afflicted him. After the invasion of the Gazan occupier, there are many, many crimes of torture and secret prisons, not to mention the widespread rape of women from time to time.

This is the case in southern Yemen after some southern leaders colluded and set the stage for the US-Saudi-American occupation to take control of their land under the pretext of restoring the so-called legitimacy that has already ended, and incited the people of the southern provinces against the army and the popular committees. Security, stability, etc., we did not hear about security, stability, prosperity and democracy after the entry of the invaders, which were praised by the forces of Saudi Arabia’s American aggression against the South; we heard and saw their security and democracy manifested clearly through secret prisons and methods of abuse brutal was their property is improvised explosive devices and car bombs here and there are killing the lives of the people of the South, let alone put them in the defense of the southern kingdom of evil battles under the banner of the southern cause, which faded after giving up their sovereignty of their homeland and the dignity of their land.

In late June, the Associated Press published an investigation into the existence of a network of secret prisons in southern Yemen, run by UAE forces. Hundreds of people disappeared in these prisons after being arbitrarily arrested. It was happening in the prison “Abu Ghraib” in Iraq, and revealed the investigation of the terrible torture crimes taking place in these prisons, especially as the agency alerted to the participation of a large US, through the presence of US military forces and US military experts are teaching the UAE forces several methods of operations torture.

Contrary to the fancy of some southern people who welcomed the Gazan occupier, the Associated Press reported that former prisoners were subjected to “brutal torture,” noting that they were blindfolded in crowded numbers in cargo containers whose walls were strewn with feces for weeks, The Associated Press reported that the “roasted chicken technique” is one of the methods used in the secret prisons of the UAE in the south, A method in which the damage is connected on a horizontal column “such as barbecue chicken machine” and then rotate the victim constantly over the fire !, and in what was re-transferred from the events of the famous American Guantanamo Bay.

The evidence provided by the Associated Press makes these prisons a replica of what was happening in Iraq, and it is no exaggeration to say that it outweighs Abu Ghraib in criminality and atrocity, as long as the American coach and torturer are mercenaries to the Americans. We may not forget all that the Americans committed. Heinous and immoral crimes of torture, abuse, humiliation, humiliation and blatant violation of human rights in Afghanistan, Iraq and especially in Abu Ghraib prison as a witness to the criminality and tyranny of Americans against the sons of the Arab Islamic nation.

What happened to the Iraqis in “Abu Ghraib prison” was because of the abandonment of the sovereignty of their country and their failure to take a firm and honorable position against the presence of Americans in their country, and it is the age of great disaster actually hit the Yemenis in the South without exception, And their political leaders and tribal elders were not able to release them on bail or guarantee from those prisons. They were not released by local or international human rights organizations because those who sold their land would be His shameful part Humiliating, and this is the result and failing to take a strict attitude against Musharraf and the presence of the occupiers and invaders in Yemen.

As long as the UAE and Saudi forces occupied southern Yemen under US direct supervision, there is no doubt that these occupying forces will use the American methods of occupation and extend their influence and suppress all those who oppose it, including prisons of torture and cruel methods of torture. This brings to mind the Abu Ghraib prison scandal in the United States. Iraq, but this time not a single prison, but 18 copies of “Abu Ghraib,” especially as “Associated” said that it had detected at least 18 secret prisons throughout southern Yemen, which is not simple for southern Yemen, A number of areas of influence Mercenaries, and that some of the detainees were transferred to an Emirati base in Eritrea.

Shortly after the Associated Press investigation, Human Rights Watch opened the file further and published an extensive report revealing a number of the most heinous crimes sponsored by the UAE and its affiliates in Yemen. It confirmed the existence of secret prisons, including two run by the UAE, and other Yemeni security forces supported by the United Arab Emirates. The organization said Aden and Hadramout provinces witnessed cases of arbitrary detention and enforced disappearance, where the report confirmed the existence of secret prisons and torture, noting that it documented 49 cases.

As evidence of US involvement in brutal torture, some members of the US Congress have called for an investigation into secret prison orders in Yemen and the participation of US officers in torture. Human Rights Watch’s Laura Peter, a national security adviser, said this was a painful reminder “The involvement of the CIA and the US military directly in similar torture programs in previous periods,” describing it as “an attempt to abdicate responsibility.”

Despite the fact that America officially denied involvement in these prisons and what is happening within them, but the existence of the truth, which confirms that all the countries of the coalition of aggression cannot do anything in Yemen only under the supervision and direct guidance of the US administration, we do not need to prove it, While the Americans committed brutal crimes and brutal methods of torture in the prisons of “Abu Ghraib” and “Guantanamo”.
