Shocking Discovery in Yemen Desert: Mummified Body Found During Illegal Gold Hunt

In a startling incident from Yemen’s Al-Jawf province, locals unearthed a human mummy believed to belong to an elderly man while engaging in illegal gold mining in the “Al-Waghrah” area. The discovery sent shockwaves through the community and reignited concerns over the plundering of Yemen’s ancient heritage.

Eyewitnesses reported that the mummy’s facial features were remarkably preserved despite being buried for centuries, suggesting a unique mummification process linked to ancient and still-unexplored Yemeni civilizations. Experts confirmed the area hosts valuable archaeological sites that are being looted daily due to lack of oversight.

The incident has once again highlighted the ongoing destruction of Yemen’s cultural treasures amid a total absence of official protection. Activists are urging authorities to intervene urgently and hold those responsible for the damage accountable.
