Tens of thousands gathered in Seiyun on Sunday to support the UAE-backed Southern Transitional Council (STC) declaring an independent 'South Arabia,' backing its recent military advances into Hadramaut and Al-Mahrah to secure against Houthi smuggling and Islah influence. The rally followed STC's 'Operation Promising Future,' which seized key bases, buildings, and oil sites from Saudi-backed forces, with participants calling it a 'popular referendum' and leaders hinting at statehood. While STC frames the actions as anti-terrorism protection, Saudi Arabia warned of consequences, Yemen's Presidential Leadership Council condemned the moves as chaotic, and critics questioned crowd turnout amid tribal wariness of separatism. Thousands rallied again in Mukalla on Monday, underscoring fractures in southern Yemen over unity and control of vital oil fields.

South Africa's Special Investigating Unit revealed on February 23, 2026, how four officials earning under R25,000 monthly amassed R16.3 million from over 2,000 fraudulent visas and permits, part of a R181 million corruption web. They approved applications without checks for bribes of R500 to R3,000, hiding funds via spouses' accounts, ghost SIM e-wallets, and small cash deposits that evaded bank flags. High-profile cases included fake permits for Prophet Shepherd Bushiri and Pastor Timothy Omotoso; Home Affairs has fired 20 staff and aims to revoke thousands of documents while pursuing recoveries.

Trump told reporters Iran wants a deal but won't explicitly promise no nuclear weapons, remarks coming hours after Iran's foreign minister stated on X that Tehran will never develop one. The U.S. is building up forces in the Gulf amid stalled negotiations set to resume indirectly in Geneva on February 26, following last year's U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear sites. Critics see a direct match in Iran's words to Trump's demand, while he pushes for verifiable limits on enrichment and missiles, reviving his maximum pressure approach as Senate Republicans voice support.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

At a White House lunch, President Trump laid out his bottom line for Iran: say the magic words committing to no nuclear weapons, or face the consequences.

On Sunday, thousands filled the streets of Aden and spilled into Abyan province for open-ended sit-ins, urging Southern Transitional Council leader Aidros al-Zubaydi to declare a second independence like in 1967. The protests follow STC forces' quick advances last week into oil-rich Hadramout, including Seiyun, where they raised the southern flag. STC governs much of the south with UAE support amid Yemen's civil war, but no declaration has come yet as critics warn of escalation and strain on fragile truces.
