Flooding Yemen with African Migrants: A Conspiracy by the Occupation and its Mercenaries in the South

The influx of illegal migrants from Africa continues to Yemen via the seaports controlled by the occupying forces and their mercenaries, a move that confirms their complicity in flooding Yemen with Africans.

According to media sources, the number of illegal African migrants arriving on Yemeni shores has risen to more than 1,400 since the beginning of this month.

Media reports indicate that a total of 1,420 African migrants have arrived on the shores of Shabwa since the beginning of February 2026. These migrants, who hold Ethiopian citizenship, arrived on the coasts of Kida, Al-Ain, Jal’ah, and Arqa in the Radhum district in seven separate groups, using eight smuggling boats piloted by Somali sailors.

Media outlets reported that the latest group, consisting of 120 Ethiopian migrants (85 men and 35 women), arrived on the coast of Arqa on Wednesday. They were disembarked by a smuggling boat called “Al-Farouq.”

The number of undocumented African migrants arriving on the shores of Shabwa since the beginning of 2026 has risen to 2,320, most of them this month.
