Hadramout National Council (HNC; Arabic: مجلس حضرموت الوطني), is a political entity formed by Hadhrami political and tribal leaders in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

[1][2][3] The formation of the Hadramout National Council is seen by some Saudi response to counter UAE influence in the southern region, as the STC serves UAE interests in Yemen and potentially as a way to address regional dynamics within Yemen.
