About the battle
The Aden unrest was a conflict between Islamist factions, such as al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, and Islamic State – Yemen Province, against the loyalists of president Abdrabbuh Mansour Hadi and later a conflict between UAE-backed and Saudi-backed factions within the coalition. In 2017, fighting also broke out between factions aligned with different members of the Saudi-led coalition namely Saudi Arabia-backed Hadi and Al-Islah and UAE-backed separatist Southern Transitional Council and Southern Movement.
