Islah special security forces deployed in Marib’s streets

MARIB, Sept. 21 (YPA) – Islah special security forces conducted suspicious moves in the city of Marib, local sources reported on late Wednesday.

According to the sources, a battalion of special security forces, deployed on most of the city’s streets, set up dozens of checkpoints.

A number of military vehicles and heavy weapons were also deployed at the entrances and exits of the city, the sources added.

Last week, the Islah factions carried out a similar military deployment in the city, which has been witnessing unprecedented tensions between the Saudi-Emirati coalition factions.

the reasons and motives for the new alert of the Islah forces are still unknown. Whether it is related to tensions with the tribes, or within fears of the fall of Marib according to the new political changes with the progress of current negotiations between Sanaa and Riyadh, especially since the alert comes in conjunction with the start of Islah camps in the city.
