Shabwah Governor accuses coalition, mercenaries of bringing back “al-Qaeda and Daesh” groups to the porvince

SANAA, Nov. 17 (YPA) – Shabwah Governor, Sheikh Ahmed bin Hassan Al-Amir has accused the US-Saudi aggression and its mercenaries of fueling the violence in the province and returning Al-Qaeda and Daesh groups to a number of districts of Shabwah.

The takfiri groups have been brought to Shabwa during the past months from the provinces of Marib and Al-Baidha to support the Islah Party militias in confrontations with the pro-Emirati transitional militias, Al-Amir told Almasirah Net on Saturday.

He  noted that Islah Party and General Ali Mohsen al-Ahmar are behind the facilitation of Al-Qaeda’s return to Shabwa and are financing its movements in a number of districts of the province in order to tighten their military control over the oil sources.

“The Islah Party along Ali Mohsen are seeking to convince the international community of the need to keep their militias for combating terrorism as a new tactic gives these militias continue to loot and confiscate oil from the Shabwah oil fields and secure oil smuggling operations in the deserts and beaches of the province,” he added.

The governor  said that this reveals the existence of Saudi intentions to control the wealth of Shabwah and control the fate of its people under the pretext of fighting terrorism.

Al-Amir called on the Shabwah’s tribes to expose these conspiracies and reject the aggression efforts and its mercenaries to return the emirates of al-Qaeda and Daesh to Shabwah.

He stressed that the sons and men of Shabwah will stand united in the face of those conspiracies and intrigues that the enemy is trying to implement in Shabwah.
