Shabwa, Newsyemen, Special:

Informed sources told Newsyemen that the Shabwa authority loyal to al-Islah, the local branch of the Muslim Brotherhood, is massing armed men inside the camps in preparation for a pro-Brotherhood demonstration.

The sources added that the Brotherhood wants to pre-empt the implementation of the mechanism to speed up the Riyadh agreement, announced by Saudi Arabia, by removing recruits within the group's militias in a demonstration in support of "Adayo".


She explained that the local authority in Shabwa was arranging to mobilize militias from inside the camps to participate in the demonstration, as the recruits were pro-Brotherhood elements, mostly from northern provinces.

The Riyadh agreement, between the legitimate government and the Transitional Council, provides for the appointment of a new governor of Shabwa province as a replacement for the current pro-Brotherhood governor.
