Aden, NewsYemen, special:
The violations and kidnappings of the Brotherhood in Shabwa governorate have increased significantly in recent times, targeting civilian figures who support the Transitional Council, in steps that reveal the weakness of this group and the ugliness of its actions.
Only the past three days witnessed the kidnapping of a number of figures in the Transitional Council, including the head of the council in Hadhramaut governorate and his companions during their return from Aden, as well as the kidnapping of a member of the General Assembly of the Council, Salem Al-Ammari, a leader in the south, Hassan Al-Tufi, and a member of the General Secretariat, Ahmed Al-Awlaki.
These extraneous acts on society are a dangerous development, as activists demand the Transitional Council not to remain silent over the kidnapping of its officials and supporters, and to respond in the same way, which may plunge the country into a cycle of chaos that will devour everyone, and all because of the shameful behavior of the Brotherhood, in light of suspicious silence from the government and the Arab Alliance.
Southern activists launched the hashtag: "#Reform_Practice War in Shabwa", to expose the Brotherhood party to world opinion and to social media users in the Arab world and the world.
Activists said that the hashtag comes after the increase in enmity and interruptions practiced by the Brotherhood's militias in Shabwa governorate under the guise of legitimacy.
Southern Forces spokesman Muhammad Al-Naqeeb said that the persistence of the terrorist Brotherhood militias in Shabwa governorate in committing grave terrorist crimes against citizens not only confirms their continued disregard for the Riyadh Agreement, but also confirms that the popular position rejecting and resisting their presence there has left them in a state of aggressive, terrorist, hysterical confusion.
As for the leader in the Southern Revolution, Ahmed al-Rubaizi, he said in a tweet to him, "The governor of Shabwa Brotherhood, "Ben Adyo" and called "Lakab," turned Shabwa's civilization and history into Brotherhood terrorist gangs that practice enmity and interruption of passers-by, where they are kidnapped with the ID card.
Al-Rubaizi stressed that the Brotherhood's actions in slicing travelers are parallel to the "Al-Qaeda" terrorists who kidnap those who hold a military ID.
For his part, the political activist, Yahya Ghaleb Al-Shuaibi, stressed that the intermittent behavior of travelers is an alien phenomenon to the culture and history of the south, and the intermittentness and rapaciousness practiced by the Shabwa Brotherhood’s authority is a shameful and morally rejected behavior, according to all laws.
And Al-Shuaibi continued: Since 94, we have fought honorably in the south, and we have not cut off or kidnapped anyone despite all the injustice.
And the journalist Anwar Al-Tamimi considered that the Islah party, which controls the Shabwa governorate, sends special messages abroad with these actions.
Al-Tamimi said in a tweet to him, "The Islah Party, while practicing fragmentation and war in Shabwa, realizes that it is losing politically, but with these actions it wants to convey messages abroad that the southern geography is divided from the side, where Aden and its surroundings are located on the bank of Hadramout and its surroundings on the other bank, and thus there is no possibility to establish a state.
In another tweet, Al-Tamimi said that southern politicians are making a mistake if they put the crimes of enmity committed by Islah in Shabwa on the agenda of their "external" talks, considering that it consolidates the image that Islah wants to promote that the south has become two banks and the Transitional has no control over it.
Al-Tamimi concluded by saying: The internal movement is enough to discipline these militias.
For his part, the southern politician, Muhammad Saeed Bahdad, called for the liberation of Shabwa governorate from Brotherhood gangs and the redeployment of the elite forces in the governorate.
Bahhadad said, "The Brotherhood of Yemen's militias usurping Shabwa persist in the practice of cutting and kidnapping of passers-by from the sons of Shabwa and Hadramout affiliated with the STC, while terrorist elements are released and frolic in the governorate without accountability or supervision, adding: That is why the liberation of Shabwa became a national duty and the return of the elite forces a popular demand.
Southern activists on social media called on the Transitional Council to intervene to stop these violations and kidnappings, to suspend participation in the Riyadh Agreement negotiations, and to pressure the sponsors of the agreement to stop Brotherhood violations or military action and purify the province to end the suffering of travelers and citizens from the actions of terrorist militias.
