Abu Obeida Yousef Al-Annabi, the second man in the fear-based oppressor association Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb, prevailing over Abdel Malek Droukdel. The head of the gathering was slaughtered by the French armed force last June while he was actuating the focusing of French interests in the Sahel and Libya because of its military help claims.

French and American powers in northern Mali murdered the head of the AQIM in an airstrike. The Algerian psychological oppressor Mubarak Yazid, called Abu Obeida Youssef Al-Annabi, was selected as the emir of the association five months after the fact. Countless contenders joined the jihadist cell in the Sahel locale, otherwise called the gathering for the Support of Islam and Muslims on the Coast.

The fear-based oppressor action of Al-Annabi

On Saturday, November 21, the American “SITE,” had practical experience in radical developments, reported that it had gotten a tape affirming the arrangement of the new psychological oppressor. Annabi, 51, has been top of the Senate, the coordinating assortment of Al-Qaeda, since 2011. Since the year 2010, he has impelled the young people of the Sahel and Sahara to join what he calls a jihad against France.

On April 25, 2013, in response to the French military mediation in Mali, he approached Muslims around the globe to assault French interests all over, on the grounds that, since the principal day of the hostility, they became real focuses, as the Muslim Brotherhood association asserted. In January 2016, he again compromised the French powers in Benghazi while encouraging the Libyans to battle against the General Command powers drove by Marshall Khalifa Haftar.

He restored his assault on the French presence in the Sahel district in a meeting with “France 24” in May 2019. After the association called to internationalize jihad, the United States put it on the boycott of worldwide psychological oppressors in September 2015. At that point, in February 2016, the United Nations Security Council included AQIM on the rundown of people and substances focused by sanctions for their support in financing, sorting out, encouraging, getting ready, or submitting psychological militant acts or exercises.

The root

His pseudonym “Annabi” returns to his foundations in the Algerian city of Annaba, where he was included since the 1990s in fear-based oppressor demonstrations of the Salafist Group for Preaching and Combat during the purported dark decade. As per the American Center for Combating Extremism, Annabi included similar works inside the Salafist Group for Preaching and Combat before it took the name of Al Qaeda in the Maghreb in 2007.

After two years, in November 2009, he got away from an unavoidable passing during a snare by the Algerian armed force in Bouzguin, in the Kabyle district. As indicated by against illegal intimidation specialists, Annabi was the second man in the association in rivalry with Droukdel. His call to grow jihad in the Sahara and the Sahel in 2010 was, as per a few investigators, an indication of an endeavor to hold onto the authority. While the open battle between Al Qaeda and Daesh presumably will proceed in the locale, after furious fights between them, which brought about many passings.

The repercussions of the French arrangement

The new improvement comes after the proceeding with repercussions of a French arrangement with Al Qaeda, as per which in excess of 200 fear based oppressors were delivered last September, and payment of 9,000,000 euros to an aggressor bunch for the arrival of three European prisoners.

Algerian security powers captured one of the assailants, however, they delivered him as a feature of the arrangement. In a video recording distributed by the Algerian Ministry of Defense, he said that he is making an impression on the gathering of Algerians who are as yet in northern Mali to re-visitation their nation of origin, Algeria.
