Southerners still waiting for a response from Saudi Arabia. If Saudi Arabia rejects the STC's declaration it will anger southerners who already accuse Saudi of watching and not doing anything to stop the abuse & corruption implemented by the Hadi Government. twitter.com/samwrax/status/1254402681789186049
Hadi begging Salman not to drop him, but Salman will drop him. This can not be negotiated away like the previous time. STC will not except breadcrums any longer.

Before the rising, South Yemenis had to manage the flood without their government, and they did especially well. This may have convinced them they didn't need Hadi, as Hadi was doing nothing for them. This is the difference between a people with legitimacy, and an army that calls itself legitimacy to fool others.
>The young men and boys in Aden, SouthYemen really did everything they could to rescue people. They are real heroes. Here they rescued a woman singing to her oh hajja don’t be sad, you lost your home don’t be sad .. malish malish ( never mind, nevermind) we will take you home Video twitter.com/munaluqman/status/1252870783442903040
