Taiz, Newsyemen:

Military sources said that the military governor of Taiz Governorate, Abdo Farhan Salem, had instructed the commander of the 35th Brigade, Abdulrahman al-Shamsani, to hand over the Al-Salou Front to the Muslim Brotherhood forces and remove the brigade’s forces from it.

Salem informed the Commander of the 35th Brigade of appointing a new commander for the As-Salou Front, restructuring the front, and adding new groups of fighters belonging to the Muslim Brotherhood.

Al-Shamsani stopped the support and spending of the front 6 days ago to put pressure on the leader of the front, who refused to allow the smuggling of oil products.

The sources said that Salem decided to hand over the Salou Front to the Fifth Brigade Presidential Guard loyal to the Muslim Brotherhood, and that more than 50 individuals affiliated with the Fifth Brigade had been added to the front in order to replace them with the 35 Armored Brigade.

The bloc of national parties in the Al-Salou district, which includes the Yemeni Socialist Party, the Nasserite Popular Unionist Organization and the General People's Congress, refused to interfere in security affairs and diverted them from their legal path.

In a previous statement, the bloc condemned the recruitment of dozens of individuals and their recruitment and numbering in illegal and illegal ways, which may lead to a deep rift in the front.

The bloc indicated the proliferation of arms and armed men carrying weapons during this period and expressed its fear that these events and manifestations could lead to a slide in the situation and with unfortunate consequences.

The bloc declared its complete stand with the leadership and members of the Salou Front against any interference in its work, in both its military and security sectors.  

It called on all political and social components to stand united behind the front and lead it against the coup militias.

The bloc demanded the leadership of the 35th Armored Brigade and the official authorities not to allow any loopholes that might prejudice the tasks of the front and supported a socialist initiative in Taiz, since its provisions included a comprehensive solution to these and other issues in the directorate and the countryside of Taiz.
