The Yemeni Islah party, the local wing of the Muslim Brotherhood, is in a state of continuous collapse in light of the continuous decisions issued by the "Presidential Leadership Council" since it took over the management of the country's affairs in April 2022.

Continuous changes carried out by the Council in the security and military institutions, at the level of governors, security directors and the judiciary. These changes contributed to investigating the roots of the Brotherhood and correcting the path of legitimacy that has been hijacked by them over the past years.

With every move made by the Presidential Council, it was faced with explicit rejection and intransigence by the Brotherhood's Islah Party, starting with launching frantic media campaigns against the Council and its leaders through their media, to carrying out military rebellions and mobilizing terrorist cells, as happened in Shabwa governorate after the decision to overthrow security leaders.  And the military loyal to them last August.

The last of these decisions was the overthrow of one of the most important pillars of the Islah party in northern Yemen, specifically in Al-Jawf Governorate, where the Chairman of the Presidential Leadership Council issued a decision dismissing the reformist leader Amin Al-Akimi from the positions of Governor of Al-Jawf and commander of the military axis, and appointing Hussein Al-Aji Al-Awadi as governor, and Muhammad Al-Ashwal as commander of the Al-Jawf military axis.  They are leaders from outside the Brotherhood wing in Yemen.

Re-arranging the status of Al-Jawf governorate, both locally and militarily, did not come from a vacuum, while Al-Jawf witnessed during the past years from the looting of resources and revenues, up to treason and handing over its camps to the Houthi militia - Iran's arm in Yemen - in the year 2020, which required a serious move by the Presidential Council towards these  An important and strategic governorate in northern Yemen.

The decision to dismiss Al-Akimi from the Al-Jawf leadership and its military axis was described as strong and serious, as the man is one of the prominent leaders in the party, and he enjoys strong support despite the strong accusations against him of participating in the looting of Al-Jawf resources and the seizure of huge sums estimated at more than 300 million Saudi riyals that were allocated from the coalition forces  Al-Arabiya to support legitimacy, to liberate Al-Jawf from any Houthi elements.

In addition, the force of the decision came in favor of the demands raised by political, social and tribal components, led by the General People's Congress and the Socialist Party, which demanded to lift the situation in Al-Jawf and prepare for the next battle with the Houthi militias in this strategic province.

The second slap to the Brotherhood in the month of October was in the south, specifically in the far east, where the President of the Presidential Leadership Council, Dr. Rashad Al-Alimi, issued a decision appointing Major General Mohsen Marsa’ as commander of the Al-Ghaydah military axis, one of the leaders that was excluded and fought by the Brotherhood after refusing to pledge allegiance to them.  .

The decisions of Al-Jawf and Al-Mahra, and the clear and public campaigns and rebellions that followed by the Islah Party, exposed the reality of the Brotherhood, which is covered with the mantle of legitimacy and rejects and obstructs all efforts of the Presidential Council from the first moment of its formation.

This rebellion emerged hours after the decision to dismiss Al-Akimi, as the branch of the Brotherhood’s Islah party in Al-Jouf came out with a statement of rebellion in which it announced its refusal to implement the decision of the Presidency Council or implement the decisions of the new governor, claiming that the dismissal of Al-Akimi is consistent and in the interest of the Houthi militia, the arm of Iran.

The Brotherhood's rebellion came after the use of tribal gunmen loyal to the party and pushed them to declare a rebellion and reject the decisions of the Presidential Council to dismiss Al-Akimi and end the Brotherhood's authority in the province.

On the other hand, Brotherhood leaders in Al-Mahra governorate escalated their campaigns against the decision to appoint Major General Mohsen Marsa’ as commander of the Al-Ghaydah military axis, claiming that the man was not from the governorate, although the man had held the position of commander of the military police in the governorate since 2019 and by a decision of former President Abd Rabbo Mansour Hadi and did not  There was no objection to the decision.

Observers believe that the military and political failures pursued by the Brotherhood during their period of control over legitimacy greatly helped in strengthening the Iranian project and their representatives, the Houthi militia, as well as the reproduction and strengthening of terrorist groups led by ISIS and Al-Qaeda.

They stressed that the rebellions and frenzied campaigns waged by the Islah Party and its media have become expected with every decision issued by the Presidential Leadership Council since its formation, due to the party's feeling that the period of its control of power is nearing its end.

Politician Fahd Talib al-Sharafi says that the rebellion against the decisions of the Presidential Leadership Council is a phenomenon that began in Shabwa and is being practiced openly in Al-Jawf, and it seems that the Brotherhood is determined not to implement any decision of the Council, unfortunately.

The writer and political analyst Khaled Salman said that the Brotherhood in Yemen is leading a series of rebellions against the Presidential Leadership Council, with the aim of weakening it.

He added: What is happening in Al-Jawf with the support of Marib against the dismissal of Al-Akimi, who is accused of handing over the province to Al-Houthi, and the failure in the war to defend it, is an extension of a previous rebellion whose theater was Shabwa, and at the same time it is a message that it is forbidden to take any decisions that correct the idle path, unless  There was no prior approval from the Brotherhood.

He explained: The reality is that Islah imposed itself as a disrupter of consensus and a breaker of consensus, and what is happening in Al-Jawf now and in Shabwa yesterday will happen tomorrow in Hadramawt, if the Presidential Council takes a step towards preparing for a serious battle with Al-Houthi, by removing the first military region to Marib, and re-correcting the function of the forces  armed forces, from looting wealth to regaining occupied lands.

He pointed out by saying: If this triangle, Shabwa, Al-Jawf, Hadhramaut, is a triangle of rebellion, then harming Taiz, where the model of the Brotherhood state and the pillar of the group’s survival tent, will be like the great explosion that will destroy the last remaining rapprochement, in a leadership council that fights to preserve the last hair of cohesion  It prevents its breakdown.

The political analyst stressed that the messages of reform are completely clear, and its prohibitions are well-read. No appointments in the military-administrative structure without obtaining the imprint of reform and responding to its resentments, and without putting reform in its true size and within the contexts of consensus and not greater than it and a decision of its paths, the Leadership Council  He confiscates his right to make decisions, and transforms the unity of command into clashing squares, serving the tyranny of one of his parties with his dual loyalties, and keeping the situation as it is, weakness upon weakness, which postpones the battle’s merits or disrupts it forever.

He said: If we have Houthi terrorism, we also have a complementary terrorism that works with it, inside and outside the Presidential Council, called “reform,” and the situation will not be straightened unless the nails of the two are clipped together.
