There are field indicators that the General Ali Mohsen al-Ahmar and the Islah party tend to control the oil resources in Shabwa province, southeast Yemen.

However, al-Ahmar's ambitions in Shabwa province are not new, but the ambitions started early, especially after the expelling the Houthi militias. He tried soon to exploit the opportunity of victory to achieve his ambitions, starting to steal the victory of Bayhan district despite the fact that only Shabwa forces led the battlefield in Bayhan.

Meanwhile, the military forces loyal the General al-Ahmar and the State of Marib worked to baffle and plot against Shabwa Elite Forces, especially after the Elite Forces secured al-Nashimah Oil Port, al-Baida Commercial Port and Balhaf Gas Port.

The forces loyal to al-Ahmar and the Islah Party tend to betray the Shabwa Elite Forces from the direction of Bayhan districts, al-Olya, al-Ayen, Usailan districts, as well as Markhah district, their forces have established Security checkpoints to expand in oil and gas fields in the districts of eastern Shabwa.

Shabwa experiences a state of mobilization in an anticipation of any military progress after al-Ahmar's forces strengthened their presence in the oil wells in a plan to baffle and mix papers or obstruct the role of the Arab Coalition, and create other battles influence the battle of the Elite forces against al-Qaeda Organization cells, especially after the great successes achieved during the past period.

The province's people strongly refuse to extend these forces loyal to al-Ahmar and the Muslim Brotherhood Movement, raising their voices to enable Shabwa Elite Forces to control the areas held by the Forces of Islah Party.

Sources say that the success of Shabwa Elite Forces in the battle to eliminate al-Qaeda elements and impose security, made al-Ahmar feel to be threatened in his oil interests in the oil wells in Shabwa province.

The building of Shabwa Elite Forces have contributed in the consolidation of stability, and have imposed a new equation on the reality which removed the resources of Shabwa under the control of the Domineering, and as a result those influential people returned back under the slogan of "Legitimacy" to try to find influence before the Elite Forces end to spread throughout the province.
