Shabwa, NewsYemen:

The Eighth Day newspaper said, according to its sources, that the Saudi forces decided to withdraw from Shabwa, after obtaining information confirming the involvement of the Brotherhood’s authority, in coordination with the Houthis, to target its forces at Ataq Airport.

The Saudi forces had completed the withdrawal of all their forces from Shabwa, on Monday morning, and it comes days after the withdrawal of Emirati forces from the Al-Alam camp, northeast of Ataq.

The newspaper pointed out that there are indications confirming the complicity of the Brotherhood's Ibn Adyo authority in planning to target Saudi forces at Aden airport.

The deputy head of the information department in the Transitional Council, Mansour Saleh, said that the Houthi-Brotherhood feud in Shabwa is the main reason for the withdrawal of Saudi forces from the province.

In his tweet on Twitter, Saleh hoped that the withdrawal of the Saudi forces would herald a new phase in which the brothers would lift their hands from the Brotherhood militias that practice tampering and terrorism in the name of legitimacy.


The three districts of Bayhan fell more than 40 days ago to the Houthi militia, with the complicity of the Shabwa Brotherhood authority.
