Al Bayda (Arabic: ٱلْبَيْضَاء, romanized: Al-Bayḍāʾ, not to be confused with Al-Bayda' in Al-Jawf, the ancient Nashaq), also known as Baida, Al-Baidhah or Beida, is a town in the Governorate of Al-Bayda in Yemen.
It is located 130 miles (210 kilometres) SE of Sana'a. Rada' (Arabic: رَدَاع, romanized: Radāʿ) is the present capital of the Governorate of Al Bayda.




History



It is the historical capital of the Beda Sultanate from 1636 until 1930.
On 8 October 2014, at least nine people were killed in an attack by Al-Qaeda militants on security and government buildings in the town, officials say. The official Saba News Agency said car bombs were used in the dawn assault, which was repelled.
In July 2021, al-Bayda was the site of intense fighting between Yemeni government-backed forces (aided by their ally Saudi Arabia) on the one hand and Houthi fighters on the other.
