Abyan Governorate clashes (2016–present), refers to ongoing clashes between forces of AQAP, forces loyal to president Abdrabbuh Mansur Hadi, and forces loyal to Southern Movement for the control of Abyan.

Background and internal conflict

Abyan was a longtime stronghold for AQAP since the beginning of the civil war. AQAP was beginning to take parts of areas of southern Abyan from the end of 2016, when they captured Zinjibar and other towns.^[53] Internal crisis begin to erupt into Abyan between the legitimate AQAP emir in the region, Tawfiq Belaidi (brother of the late AQAP emir there, Hamza al-Zinjibari) and another AQAP warlord named Abu Anas al-Sanani, over who will succeed Hamza. It's not clear who won the crisis, but the conflict killed 7 and wounded 9 in both sides.^[54]

Clashes and other incidents

In 21 of February, AQAP militants withdrew from Ahwar city, after a failed attempt to consolidate control. AQAP militants attacked a popular resistance checkpoint in the area, killing three, before erecting their own checkpoints and flying al-Qaeda’s black flag from government buildings. Militiamen from the Bakazim tribe massed outside Ahwar in response. AQAP agreed to withdraw under the terms of a tribal mediation allowing the group free passage through the city.^[55] In March 8, AQAP gunmen abducted a government official named Haidara Daha at al Musaymir, west of Zinjibar. AQAP is consolidating control in Abyan governorate and has targeted local leaders and officials opposed to its expansion.^[56]^[57] On March 26 and 27, three air strikes carried out by U.S. drones, killing eight AQAP members and three beekeepers in Al Mahfad District.^[58]^[59] Two Saudi planes launched rockets into an old office of the local government in Zinjibar, setting the building on fire. 10 AQAP fighters were believed to be killed.^[60]^[61]^[62]^[63] On 8 April 2016, more than 35 Hadi Yemeni government soldiers were captured by supposed AQAP soldiers in Ahwar. 17 or more than 20 of them were executed by firing squad, with the others being wounded but still alive, and with others believed to have escaped and get to safety out of Ahwar. The soldiers were travelling from Aden to Al Mahrah Governorate via Ahwar, and during hair passing in Ahwar they have been ambushed. One day later, on 9 April, AQAP denied that its fighters executed the soldiers, blaming a local armed fighter named Ali Aqel. "We entered Ahwar around two months ago to chase this corrupt individual and his gang," the statement said.^[64]^[65] In 14 of April, an airstrike hit an AQAP checkpoint in the Al Kawd, killing 10 AQAP militants.^[66] On the same day, tribal fighters loyal to Hadi ambushed an AQAP convoy in Mafhad, killing 3, including a commander, Amjad al-Wahti.^[67] On April 17, two airstrikes hit Zinjibar, targering the house of Tariq al-Fadhli. No info about casualties provided.^[68]^[69]

Ground offensive

In April 22, Hadi loyalists and their partners make preparation to attack Zinjibar in a ground offensive.^[70] One day later, the battle begun, but the forces of Hadi loyalists retreated after AQAP militants detonated a Car bomb (VBIED) targeting an army convoy that killed 4 loyalists and injured 14 others. Reports indicated that AQAP had planned additional VBIED attacks. The Hadi government had given AQAP a 24-hour window in which to peacefully withdraw from Zinjibar by April 24. In the same day however, loyalists carried out another offensive in Jaʿār, that killed 25 AQAP militants and four soldiers and seized al Koud, three miles south of Zinjibar.^[71] AQAP did not agreed with the deal that loyalists offered to them, so they did not withdraw from Zinjibar. In April 26, a U.S airstrike targeted a car carrying al Qaeda militants that was traveling between the cities Ja’ar and Zinjibar. The strike killed 5 AQAP fighters, including a local commander named Abu Sameh al-Zinjibari.^[72]^[73] Al Qaeda militants arrived in Zinjibar on April 27, after fleeing the coalition-led recapture of their stronghold in Mukalla, Hadramawt on April 23.^[74] Residents of Zinjibar demonstrated against AQAP on April 29, the first such demonstration since AQAP captured the city in December 2015. The demonstrators called for the liberation of Zinjibar from AQAP, emphasizing they would not allow their city to become a base for militant activity.^[75]

AQAP retreat

AQAP agreed to begin withdrawing fighters from Zinjibar on May 3. AQAP previously reinforced positions in western Abyan governorate on May 3 ahead of a planned government offensive but later agreed to begin withdrawing its forces after further negotiations with local mediators. The group reportedly agreed on April 30 to withdraw from Zinjibar on the condition that government forces not enter the city and that the local militias not resume their activities in the area. AQAP also sought guarantees that its members would remain immune from future prosecution. Local mediators gave the group three days to withdraw before a clearing operation on May 3, but agreed to offer the group an extension to avert a costly battle.^[76] Al Qaeda began withdrawing from Zinjibar, on May 5. AQAP militants evacuated several governmental buildings and began to retreat towards Shabwah Governorate.
