Violent confrontations continue between the army and the Houthi militia, the Iranian arm in Yemen, in Al-Jawf governorate.

The clashes of the past hours were concentrated in the Al-Jaroub front in the Al-Matoon District, near the governorate center.

Fifteen members of the Houthi militia were killed during the army's response to a massive attack on the Al-Jaroub front in Al-Matoon district.

A military source said that the battle also resulted in the burning of two militia militias.

In conjunction with the battles, the source said, coalition fighters targeted an air strike, a militia vehicle that killed and wounded all those on board.

The fighting fronts in Al-Jawf Governorate are witnessing violent battles on all fronts for the second week in a row.

Houthi militia cut the internet and communications service to Al-Jawf Governorate in conjunction with these battles.


A source in the Sana'a Communications Corporation said that the Houthi militia cut off communications of various kinds (SabaFon - Yemen Mobile - MTN) from the liberated areas in Al-Jawf Governorate seventeen days ago.

The militia has isolated the people from communicating with the rest of the other regions, in a crime that adds to its criminal record.
