al-Jawf

WILD STORY BEING A REPORTER IN YEMEN

Tribes in Yemen's al-Jawf are mobilizing against the Houthis over the arrest of a Sana'a woman known as "Mira." The al-Yatma tribes, historically neutral or pro-Ansarullah, are threatening military action if she isn't released. Mira claims to be a daughter of Saddam Hussein. She allegedly entered Yemen in 2003 and was hidden under a new identity by the Saleh government.
