Do Jewish and Yemeni men from Hadramaut share the Lemba's DNA markers?

Research question: Do Hadrami Jewish and Yemeni Y-chromosome samples, typed on the same marker panel, show the CMH and haplogroup J at frequencies that match the Lemba Hadramaut overlap [6]?

The records show that Yemen's paternal Y-chromosome haplogroups are dominated by J1, which the study associates with Southwest Asia 1. The material provided does not include any data on Hadrami Jewish samples, the CMH marker, or the Lemba Hadramaut overlap, so it cannot confirm whether those frequencies match 1. The only fact available is dated 2025-01-06, roughly one year and nine months before October 2026, so the evidence may be somewhat dated 1. The question therefore cannot be answered from the verified facts provided 1.
