After the extradition of Nata' and Numan, will "Bayhan" be a new front for blackmailing the Muslim Brotherhood for the coalition?

Al-Bayda, NewsYemen, Special:

The Houthi group announced its control of the districts of Numan and Nata' in Al-Bayda governorate this week and became on the outskirts of the city of Baihan in Shabwa governorate, whose borders have witnessed violent battles in the past two days.

The fall of the two districts was surprising, as the fronts in which they are located did not witness battles with the militias, and the battles were taking place in the areas of Hazmieh and Al-Zahir, which are far from these districts.

The Islah Party, the Brotherhood’s branch in Yemen, controls the Nata and Nu’man fronts, unlike the Hazmieh and Zahir fronts, in which forces from the giants, the southern resistance and the tribes are fighting.

Sources in the Hazmieh Front said that the leadership of the front demanded the forces on the Nati front to pressure the Houthis when the battles of Hazmieh and the outskirts of Mukayras intensified, but these forces did not move.

The source at the front indicated to NewsYemen that they were surprised by the strange fall of the fronts of Numan and Nata' in the absence of battles, which put pressure on the front and a collapse of morale, yet it is still stable and has not lost any positions and valiantly confronts the Houthi attacks.

The fall of Nata’ and Nu’man in this way is similar to the great fall of the fronts in Nihm, Al-Jawf and Marib, which are led by forces loyal to the Islah party and without fierce battles and in rugged areas and mountains that it is difficult to fall in this way, which confirms the deliberate delivery.

The Houthis have traveled long distances and controlled large areas until they are threatening the Bayhan district in Shabwa governorate, especially after their control of the "Al-Qana'a" mountain overlooking the city.

Observers accused Al-Ahmar and the Brotherhood of putting pressure on the coalition by threatening the fall of Shabwa to obtain support, equipment and money.

Blackmailing the coalition by handing over areas and prolonging the war is the Brotherhood’s plan that the group has pursued since the beginning of the war, and it seems that it has started implementing it within the borders of Shabwa in the same way it is implementing it in Marib, Al-Jawf and others.

The Houthi militia broadcast scenes of what it called the battles to liberate Nata' and Numan, and revealed that it had seized large weapons left by the forces, including cannons, launchers, vehicles and ammunition, which is a new support for the militias as it is the support they received from Nihm and Al-Jawf when they fell.

And the deputy governor of al-Bayda, "Ahmed al-Humayqani," had accused the legitimate Ministry of Defense of betraying and causing the downfall of the directorates of Numan and Nata' in the hands of the Iranian arm.

In a statement published by Agence France-Presse, Al-Humayqani admitted that the Houthi militia had reached the outskirts of Bayhan in Shabwa governorate, after taking control of Nata' and Numan.

The Houthis stopped at the borders of Bayhan, and perhaps as they were drawn, and battles erupt from time to time with the Brotherhood forces, but according to tribal sources, they are not serious, and it does not seem that a party wants to progress and may continue for years to come if the coalition does not intervene and end these farce that prolonged the war and caused suffering to the people.
