Despite all instructions and directives to restrict the terrorist Muslim Brotherhood's (MB) media and political activities in Turkey, in preparation for rapprochement with Egypt, the terrorist group is still practicing its activities openly.

A few days ago, the Turkish city of Istanbul hosted a conference under the title "Youth of Change, a Decade of Struggle and a Step for the Future," according to a report published by Arabia.net.

The report stated that a number of MB leaders and associates of the "Hasm" movement, the armed wing of the group, took part in the meeting to "revive" the so-called "The Arab Spring Revolutions" and "the return of the fugitive youth to Turkey” to their countries again.

The participants aim at returning to their countries "to participate in the process of change and the ouster of regimes," according to their speeches which revealed new details about the group’s activities on Turkish soil.

"The terrorist MB holds training courses on intelligence arts for its members residing in Turkey at an academy called International Relations, which is supervised by Brotherhood leader Essam Abdel Shafi," according to Al-Arabiya's report.

The academy was established in 2017, and specializes in teaching Brotherhood youth and their elements how to work in fields of humanities and social studies, especially those related to political science, international relations, strategic studies, law, economics, management, media, sociology, and preparing studies.

Essam Abdel Shaf is a MB leader, and he works as a professor of political science and international relations at Rushd University in Turkey.

Hasm terrorist movement in Turkey

It is noteworthy that the ‘change conference’ that the group held recently in Istanbul witnessed the participation of Mohamed Montaser, a leader in the "Hasm Movement," who vowed during his speech to "intervene to dissolve and change the status quo" in the Arab countries, namely, Egypt.

Then Montaser, who was convicted of several court rulings in Egypt for his involvement in violence, terrorism, and assassinations, said: "We chose to hold the conference during this period to convey the message that the revolutions have not ended and that there are other waves in which they will prevail."

The year 2014 witnessed the foundation of that terrorist movement. Two years later, the pro-Muslim Brotherhood group movement uncovered itself, following a failed assassination attempt against Egypt’s cleric Ali Gomaa, Egypt’s former Grand Mufti.

Accordingly, lights was shed on HASM after it claimed responsibility for the assassination attempt of the former Mufti in Six October City, west of Cairo. The operation was described as primitive. Only four of the group’s members carried out the operation and used 58 bullets from their machine guns.
