The Vice President of the Transitional Council clarified that the aim of the attack was the control of Aden the capital according to a scenario prepared in advance, stressing that "the simultaneous synchronization cannot separate relation between the incident of Al-Gala'a camp and the bombing of Sheikh Othman police station and the events of Al-Mehfid."

Ben Brik said there is no displacement or expulsion of the north people from Aden and the south as promoted by the channels of the Islah and the Muslim Brotherhood, But he stressed that the south is in a state of war that requires security tightening to secure and protect the southern provinces, and any person who does not have identity papers and identifies the place he comes from and his residence, then naturally he will be subjected to procedures and questioning, whether he or she a northern or southern person.
