Rafat Al-Thaqli Returns to Socotra on a Saudi Plane
Socotra Governor Rafat Al-Thaqli returned to the archipelago on Sunday, months after leaving following the failed escalation by the dissolved Southern Transitional Council (STC) in the governorates of Hadhramaut and Mahra earlier this year.
Al-Thaqli's return to Socotra was considered a shock to citizens who were awaiting a serious step from the Presidential Council and the Coalition to activate state institutions and provide basic services.
Activists said that the return of Al-Thaqli and those with him to the scene again can only be described as a blatant political provocation, stressing that "recycling the faces that turned against legitimate institutions, betrayed the constitutional oath, and aligned with cross-border projects, is a death blow to the hopes of the Socotri citizen."
They added that the return of Al-Thaqli and his team, in the absence of real state institutions, is not just a procedural error, but a political sin that legitimizes the coup and grants a certificate of innocence to those who betrayed the trust.
