Ali Abdullah Saleh
Ali Abdullah Saleh was the President of Yemen from 1990 until his resignation in 2012 amidst the Arab Spring protests. His long rule was marked by political instability, civil strife, and widespread corruption. After stepping down, he remained a controversial figure, and his alliance with the Houthi movement in later years led to his eventual downfall and death in 2017 during clashes with rival forces.
