The Muslim Brotherhood turns Taiz into a hub of chaos, violence, and crime… What’s new?

The Yemeni city of Taiz has been experiencing unprecedented insecurity for over a decade due to the control exerted by the Muslim Brotherhood, which has thrown the city into chaos, undermining its security and stability and instilling fear among its residents, all while the internationally recognized legitimate government remains shamefully silent, according to the local newspaper Al-Omana.

Recently, Taiz, which is under the security and military control of the Muslim Brotherhood in Yemen, witnessed new nighttime clashes, resulting in dozens of civilians being killed and injured.

The newspaper also highlighted the increasing number of mysterious crimes in areas controlled by the Muslim Brotherhood in Taiz, with the security authorities—dominated by the Al-Islah party—noticeably absent. This situation raises concerns among residents over the worsening security situation and the rising crime rate in the region.

It was emphasized that these brutal crimes stem from the lack of a civil state foundation in Yemen, as well as the negative effects of the Brotherhood’s opportunistic rule and the absence of a clear national vision for decades. Power has continuously been seized by corrupt leaders who have exploited their positions for personal gain, with no real concern for the people’s welfare or the establishment of a strong institutional state.

Instead of fostering national unity and justice, this opportunism has contributed to the destruction of the state’s structure and the dismantling of the systems and laws meant to regulate citizens’ lives.
