The Administrative Body of the National Assembly of the Southern Transitional Council (STC) held its routine weekly meeting on Wednesday, headed by Mr. Ali Abdullah Al-Kathiri, Chairman of the National Assembly and Acting President of the STC.

The administrative body has renewed its call on the people of the South to coalesce around and redouble their support for the SAF and security services in the decisive battle against terrorism. The body has also appealed to all regional and international actors to support the SAF in their crucial fight against terrorism and its organizations, given that the threat they pose targets everyone in the region and the world.

Moreover, they highlighted their role in countering the incitement media campaigns and disinformation targeting the SAF.
The administrative body subsequently reviewed a report submitted by the Committee on University Education, Technical Education, and Vocational Training.
