The 1948 Coup Against Imam Yahya and the al-Wazir Rebellion
Om avsnittet
In February 1948, a coup in Sanaa ended the life of Imam Yahya Muhammad Hamid ed-Din and briefly installed a rival dynasty. This episode explores the assassination plot, the role of the al-Wazir family, and the brutal reprisal under Crown Prince Ahmad. We examine how the coup fractured Zaydi tribal alliances and set the stage for the 1962 revolution. Featuring details on the Hashid and Bakil confederations, the role of the Free Yemeni movement, and the execution of poet Muhammad Mahmud al-Zubayri. A forgotten turning point in modern Yemeni history.
