Three explosions occurred at noon on Wednesday 30/12/2020 at Aden International Airport, the moment the new government of Maeen Abdul-Malik arrived from Riyadh, two days after it was sworn in before Abd Rabbu in Riyadh. The bombings have left 26 dead and more than 50 wounded.

The explosions were accurate in terms of time and place. Their aim was to discourage the government, not to harm its members, who left the airport for the presidential palace in Ma’asheeq. The explosions have made the government under the watchful eye and the difficulty of escaping from it, otherwise it will face a security threat, which means obviously its failure as its predecessors to take care of the affairs of the people, so how can a government secure people if it cannot secure itself?! Ironically, there is a similarity between the governments of Sana'a and Aden; the security grip is in Sana'a, but there is no security in Aden, and the people have their livelihoods in Aden but there are non-existent in Sana'a. Thus, the two governments are involved in killing; the rulers of Aden are killing people with weapons and the rulers of Sana'a are killing them by starvation.

Attention on the perpetrator of the bombings at Aden International Airport is drawn to the British who did not like the Riyadh Conference, which makes Hadi and the Transitional Council one party in the negotiations with the Houthis and not two parties, so the British share decreases when shares are distributed between them and the Americans. Britain acted to thwart it, having delaying its implementation for more than a year. Britain has entrusted to its agent, the UAE, which has maintained the security file in Aden since it entered in August 2015, to terrorize the government with the bombings. And it is ruled out the Houthis were behind the Aden Airport bombings, as the Houthis are Americans, and America is the one who lobbied hard to make the Riyadh Agreement. Among the goals of the bombings was to return the security portfolio to the Transitional Council that was stolen from it, and Shalal Shaya was appointed as a military attaché in the UAE, and to shake the image of the new security director in Aden in order to change him.

With these bombings, Britain threatens America to ignite a war in which its agents in the south are victimized, as it did with them over 50 years ago, so America submits to its demands. The Amir of Hizb ut Tahrir, the eminent scholar, Ata Bin Khalil Abu Al-Rashtah, had previously warned of the consequences of the international conflict between Britain and America over Yemen in the answer to question he issued on 13/08/2019 regarding the events in Aden, as well as Hizb ut Tahrir issued a leaflet on 26/11/2019 on the Riyadh Agreement, and the party continues to warn the people of Yemen about the continuation of this colonial conflict, that would repeat the bloody scenarios of the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s, by local hands and regional sponsors.

There remains one word we want to address to the people of Iman and wisdom, that they should not keep watching the conflicting parties against them, who do not observe any pact of kinship or covenant of protection for them, and to stop the shedding of their blood as a sacrifice to Britain and America. And that they should take the initiative to work with Hizb ut Tahrir for the return of Islam to life to make it their Aqeedah that emanates from it their system for all matters of life by the establishment of the second Khilafah Rashidah (righteous Caliphate) on the Method of Prophethood, The Prophet (saw) said: «ثُمَّ تَكُونُ خِلَافَةٌ عَلَى مِنْهَاجِ النُّبُوَّةِ»“then there will be a Khilafah on the Method of Prophethood,” [Narrated by Ahmed on the authority of An-Nu’man ibn Bashir].
