Nadia Abdulaziz Al-Sakkaf (Arabic: نادية عبد العزيز السقاف; born 8 March 1977) is a former Yemeni Minister and politician.

She fled Yemen in 2015 after the coup and is currently an independent researcher in politics, media, development and gender studies based in the United Kingdom.

[3] Her father was a lecturer in economics at Sana'a University, a founder of the Arab Organization for Human Rights and founded the Yemen Times in 1990.

He died in 1999 after being hit by a car, although Al-Sakkaf and her brother believe he was assassinated for opposing the regime of President Ali Abdullah Saleh.

In 2011, during the Arab Spring in Yemen, Al-Sakkaf and her staff participated in protests demanding that Saleh step down[7] and played a significant role in reporting the Yemeni Revolution to the wider world.

[12][13] On 20 January 2015, when Houthi fighters stormed the capital and took control of all media outlets, Al-Sakkaf took to Twitter to report the coup.

"[12] In May 2015, Al-Sakkaf was living in exile in Riyadh as a member of the internationally recognised Yemeni government seeking to restore President Abdrabbuh Mansur Hadi to power.

[6] She received the Free Media Pioneers Award from the International Press Institute in Vienna on behalf of the Yemen Times in the same year.
