A visit by the Houthi leader, Muhammad Al-Bukhaiti, to the Mahliya district in the southern governorate of Ma'rib provoked the anger of the tribesmen against the legitimate leaders and accused them of failing the defenders of the district until it fell into the hands of the militia despite the huge sacrifices they made from the martyrs and wounded in the battles of last year.

Identical local sources revealed a visit by the Houthi appointed governor of Dhamar Governorate, to the Amoud area in Mahlia, on a visit to the district, which is under the militia’s control since last September.

While tribal sources reported that the visit, which was intended to appear in the context of a comprehensive program prepared by the militia for its leaders on the battlefronts during Eid al-Fitr, aims to prepare a plan to carry out an operation from the southern front in an effort to reach the city of Ma'rib after the heavy losses it suffered on the western fronts of Ma'rib .

While other sources revealed a personal mission for Al-Houthi regarding the body of a prominent field leader, one of his relatives, who was killed with an armed militia group during the raging battles on the Al-Mashjah front.

She explained that Al-Bakhiti requested the mediation of sheikhs from the Murad tribe to allow the corpse of the leader Ahmed Nasser Ali Al-Bukhaiti, known as Abu Badr, to be recovered from one of the fighting fronts, as the militia failed to retrieve the body and declared a number of its members, including two of his relatives, in a failed attempt.

Referring to the success of the mediation and the recovery of the body from the Al-Mashjah front and returning it to Sana'a (Houthi media announced on Monday, May 17th, the funeral ceremonies of Ahmed Al-Bukhaiti's body in Sana'a and burial in one of the cemeteries of their dead in the Rawda area).

The people of Al-Saatara and Murad, the residents of Mahliya (which is under the militia's control), were subjected to severe criticism by leaders in the legitimacy, including a number of people from the districts that are still liberated in Marib, claiming to allow the Houthi leader to come and host him in their homes.

These criticisms were a spark of anger among Mahleya tribesmen, who praised the heroic roles of the Sa'ata, Murad and others, accusing the army leaders of neglecting the Mahliya district and not standing with its sons who stood alone in the face of an armed arsenal backed by Iran.

They accused the legitimacy of causing the fall of Mahalia when a front was created in Qaniya with the aim of looting military support, despite warnings of this ill-considered step, and then its military forces withdrew from Qana, Mahliya and others, accusing the tribes of Al-Saarah.

Naji Ali al-Talibi, a resident of the region, said that Mahliya is under the control of the Houthis after it failed it and failed its legitimate people and left it facing its fate, speaking of "forces that were eating in the name of a civil front and had no presence or role in defending the Mahli and supporting the people of Mahli." In reference to the Islah party, whose leaders are accused of excluding the people of the region and limiting the army brigades to its cadres.


For his part, Abu Asim Al-Nahmi, in a lengthy article, indicated that the difference between the Bakhiti, who are bidding for his demise, is qualified.

He explained that the people of Mahli did not witness trenching operations and high readiness and readiness by the Legitimacy Army until after the fall of the Directorate, accusing the leadership of the Legitimacy Army of deliberately depriving those on the front lines of quality weapons such as night systems as well as armored vehicles and vehicles.

The army commanders and the leadership of Ma'rib governorate considered part of the fall and defeat, even if they were not satisfied with that. “Their adherence to and treatment of those who sold them delusions were the consequences and consequences of their consequences for them as senior leaders,” and called for a transparent and fair investigation to hold both Qasr and Khan accountable.

Al-Nahmi affirmed that the tribesmen are from the Mahliya, and despite the deliberate marginalization and negligence of the legitimate leaders, both civil and military, they are “ready for the liberation battle and to recover what fell from Murad and Yemen in full if there is a sincere intention on the part of the concerned parties and the decision-makers, and we will not fall behind or fail One day for fighting the Houthis on any front, region, or place.
