After depriving Turkey of a platform of influence in Yemen to end the Brotherhood’s control of Socotra Island, political sources expect a coming wave of Qatari-funded escalation of brotherhood that may take place in Shabwa governorate, in which resigned Minister of Transport Saleh al-Jabwani continues to establish military forces with funding from Doha.
Sources confirmed the arrival of new arms shipments from the third military area in Marib in support of the camp that al-Jabwani developed in the city of Ataq, the center of the Shabwa governorate controlled by the Brotherhood.
Expectations are that the coming period will witness further displacement in Yemeni legitimacy towards the axis of Turkey, Qatar in the Yemeni government, which the sources consider to be the main reason for stalling the implementation of the Riyadh agreement and pushing for more political and military tension with the forces and components not subject to the Muslim Brotherhood agenda, such as the Transitional Council and the resistance forces Common in the West Coast.
In the context, the London Arab daily, on Monday, quoted assurances from sources about the emergence of signs of prospective Brotherhood activity in each of the governorates of Hadhramaut and Mahra with Qatari funding in the context of a plan to transfer tension and confrontations to the liberated governorates in the south, while the Houthis continue to control large areas in Al-Jawf and Nehm Information indicates that it was delivered to the Houthis in response to the control of the Southern Transitional Council in Aden in August 2019.
The French "Intelligence Online" newspaper, which is specialized in intelligence affairs, confirmed the escalation of Turkey's activity in Yemen through the Turkish Relief Organization, which has some elements in the governorates controlled by the Brotherhood, with the participation of influential Yemeni Brotherhood leaders, led by the influential Sheikh and the businessman residing in Istanbul, Hamid al-Ahmar.
Observers believe that the emergence of Turkish ambitions in the region and the emergence of two axes, one of which includes Turkey, Qatar, Iran and the other led by Saudi Arabia and Egypt, will cast a shadow on the map of internal alliances in the Yemeni scene, which necessitates the necessity of isolating the current loyal to the axis of Turkey in Qatar in the Yemeni government, and creating a case of clear political differentiation on the positions of this trend, which has confused the coalition, obstructed legitimacy and confused the list of priorities in favor of the anti-Arab coalition project, and in a way that collides with the objectives of the legitimate government itself.
