 When Salem decided to launch the Brotherhood’s battle in Taiz against Al-Hajaria and against the 35th Field Armored Brigade, Al-Islah militias began to control a small point in Ras Najd Qasim located between the districts of Jabal Habashi and Al-Misrakh, after the Brotherhood’s media paved the way for intensive campaigns and incitement against military, social and political leaders, parties and components  Military "Abu al-Abbas Brigades and the 35th Armored Brigade".

After the control of the point, the Brotherhood’s crowd militia moved in Al-Misrakh and in the adjacent areas, and armed gangs were supported to target the point and location of the Taiz Al-Nashma triangle, and the Brotherhood’s army forces came from Taiz in a security campaign to disengage and took control of the overlooking heights under the pretext of protecting the area and the road.

From the Yafris triangle to the Al-Baireen triangle, the stone gate and the separating point between the forces of the 35th Armored Brigade and the Brotherhood militias, and every time the security campaigns leave Taiz under the pretext of stopping the clash and are positioned in the triangle and the areas overlooking Al-Baireen.

The Brotherhood militias, despite their density, failed to surpass the forces of the 35th Armored Brigade led by Brigadier General Adnan al-Hammadi. However, the plot to assassinate the martyr leader Adnan al-Hammadi represented an important turning point, as it invaded the Muslim Brotherhood militia, with its two parts, calculated on the Taiz axis, or the irregular militias and the Qatari-backed Hamoud al-Mikhlafi groups.

The danger of the Islah militias on the south and the western coast began from the moment when the Brotherhood’s terrorist groups reached the first point in the city of Al-Nashma in Al-Ma’afer and crossed the Al-Baireen Triangle in a battle that participated in the plot planning and making it successful, Youssef Al-Sharaji, the Brotherhood leader who presented himself as a mediator and promised to withdraw all forces that crossed the Triangle  pyrenees.

From the Neshma in Ma’afer Taiz, the snowball rolled to grow and reach the borders of the southern governorate of Lahj, where the Brotherhood’s militias are crowded on a vast geography from the borders of Al-Wazi’iyah in the west to the borders of Lahj in the south and east to the outskirts of Dimna in As-Silw and Sami.

Within about two years, the Brotherhood devoted itself to building new forces and forming camps, part of them under the name of the Tur al-Baha axis and the other part in the name of Sheikh Al-Mikhlafi camps funded by Doha.. In both cases, these militias work to implement the agenda and plans of the Brotherhood and their regional allies and serve the Iranian project by dispersing the anti-Houthi forces.

After the Brotherhood completed besieging the 35th Armored Brigade, guarding the southern and western gates, their militias began to position themselves in sites of military importance and build a road from Al-Hijriya that will reach the Aden Gate from the western coast, and their camps shared the tasks.  with West Coast forces.

The Brotherhood militias led by the leader Abu Bakr al-Jaboli, commander of the Fourth Infantry Brigade and commander of the Tur al-Baha axis, which the Brotherhood established as an illegal axis and without a decision from the military leadership, began its military moves since last week to impose its control over the Ma’bak areas in al-Maqatirah and the last border area between Taiz and Lahj.

Ma’bak is not far from the locations of the al-Jabouli militias, but to subdue it and its people militarily and to break the fighters from the people of the region who resisted this military expansion inside their area and next to their homes and in the heights overlooking the roofs of their homes is the goal of the Brotherhood militias that left the Houthi sites in the vicinity and went to declare war on the people of Ma’bak  .

As it did in Al-Hujariya and in every area in which it is located, the Brotherhood militias led by al-Jaboli deliberately provoked social figures and leaders who have a presence and acceptance in society within Mabak, intercepting their movements at the points, kidnapping those close to them and spreading militia members between homes.  Attack them and subdue them by force.

Al-Jabouli had previously taken control of Maqtarah and its security management, and appointed himself as a military ruler with absolute powers above all authorities, and this control comes within the scheme of the Brotherhood’s militias to be present and target the south and not leave any centers of social power behind their forces advancing in the south.

And because al-Maqtarah, including Maqtarah, formed an extension of the revolutionary left’s forces in the past, and was deep in the south in the northern regions and on the borders, as was the case with Al-Hijriya, the Brotherhood’s animosity with these areas extends to the culture that formed a wall against the encroachment of the dark religious forces with their backward, reactionary thought.

The Brotherhood declares war against their political opponents with the forces of the state and militias that falsely claim their affiliation with legitimacy, and they are preparing to invade the south and the coast to serve regional cross-border projects.

Even if the mediators announced the containment of the escalation in Ma’bak, the Brotherhood’s goal goes beyond Ma’bak and al-Maqatrah to Lahj, al-Anad, Aden and all of the south, which the Brotherhood considers more important than liberating Sanaa from the Houthi militia.

Ma'bak is the moment of the beginning and the military move towards it to subjugate it is not a passing dispute between a military ruler and a social component with its tribal and political symbols, but rather it is a station to move beyond.  Every ten meters controlled by the Brotherhood's militias as they crawl south, it is a new and important addition to the geography that invaded it from Misrakh to Maqatira and from Ma'afer to Rasin.
