And at an advanced time, on Tuesday evening, violent clashes intensified in al-Fakher and al-Jub, using all types of medium and heavy weapons.

The source said, that the Houthi militias launch a massive attack on the areas of al-Jub, Battar and Sabira in al-Fakhir, in conjunction with new Houthi reinforcements that have reached the front of al-Fakher, and Houthi militias are still pushing huge military reinforcements days ago to the Al-Dhale’ fronts.


Houthi gunmen tried to infiltrate the positions of the forces stationed in Hubail Al-Kalb and a number of fighting points in al-Fakher, and the southern resistance fought violent clashes using armor and machine guns.

On Tuesday, southern forces pushed military reinforcements to the Battar Front, north of Dhale’.

According to military sources, the new reinforcements are due to the strategic importance of the Battar Front, which lies between Qataba, Hajar and al-Hasha.

Houthi militias attempted to infiltrate through armed groups east of Sabira to the valley, on Tuesday, from morning hours until evening. The clashes are still raging and are widely heard from the city, and both parties use all medium and light weapons.
