Bin Habresh Overlooks Muslim Brotherhood Terrorism… Hadrami Elite Forces Face a Plot
Despite the remarkable security achievements made by the Hadrami Elite Forces in securing the Hadramout coast, maintaining stability, and combating terrorism, these forces are now facing a deliberate campaign of targeting, led by tribal leader Amr Bin Habresh, raising questions about his true intentions.
In a move that sparked widespread criticism, Bin Habresh initiated the establishment of military recruitment camps outside the framework of the state, in secure coastal areas, without any coordination with relevant authorities. Observers consider this a direct threat to the Elite Forces and an attempt to undermine their national role by creating a parallel force that serves narrow agendas unrelated to Hadramout’s public interest.
What is particularly troubling isBin Habresh’s continued silence regarding the severe security breakdown in Wadi Hadramout, where extremist groups and terrorist elements operate under the umbrella of the Muslim Brotherhood. The forces controlling the area have shown notable inaction, with some reportedly complicit in protecting or colluding with these groups.
If Bin Habresh truly cared about Hadramout’s security—as he claims—why hasn’t he directed his efforts toward the Wadi, which is drowning in chaos and extremism? Why is he instead undermining the secure coast and the respected Elite Forces that enjoy broad popular support?
According to analysts, Bin Habresh’s actions are a transparent attempt to weaken southern forces and pave the way for the return of chaos and corruption, as part of a broader plan to restore Muslim Brotherhood dominance in Hadramout.
Activists warn that these politically driven tribal agendas may drag Hadramout into a new cycle of conflict, at a time when the governorate needs to strengthen official institutions—especially the Hadrami Elite Forces—not fuel tensions through the creation of rival militias that risk reigniting disorder and instability.
