Marib, NewsYemen, Exclusive:
The fronts of four districts of the Marib governorate witnessed military operations of the government forces backed by the local resistance and the fighters of the Arab coalition, at dawn on Thursday, during which they managed to liberate sites described as strategic and ruling, which were controlled by the Iranian-backed Houthi militia.
Field sources confirmed the liberation of sites and supply routes in the "Mas camp" front, west of Mudaghl district, as well as the liberation of sites in the "Al-Jufra Valley" of the neighboring Raghwan district, noting that the forces and resistance were advancing towards the Al-Jawf junction and encircling Mas through the advance in the two districts.
The government forces and the resistance made advances on the "Al-Mashajah, Al-Kasara and Al-Zour" fronts of the Sarwah district, after the coalition fighters carried out air military operations targeting Houthi sites and vehicles in those areas, which led to the destruction of 8 combat vehicles and a militia weapons store in Al-Kasara and Al-Mashjah.
In southern Marib, the government forces and the local resistance regained the initiative to support the coalition fighters, and were able to fully restore the sites of "Al-Alib, Hamra Al-Naqm, and Samira" in the Rahba district, and continued to advance on the outskirts of Wadi Al-Musharif, after targeting Houthi sites by coalition fighters, which led to destroy four vehicles, killing and wounding many Houthis.
Military sources in Rahba stated that the military operation of the army and the resistance achieved its goals, and transformed the battles from defense to attack, referring to the families of the Houthi supervisor in Rahba called "Ahmed Qassem Hassan al-Nafudha."
Yemeni military leaders had confirmed the position of the Houthi militia in Marib governorate as a strategic goal within the framework of implementing a project and an external agenda, and in order to achieve this goal, it placed a very large human reservoir that it managed to mislead with its ideas and through financial temptations, weapons and positions.
The sources pointed out that the Houthi human stock has been greatly depleted by the army, tribes and fighters of the Arab coalition, since the beginning of the attack on Marib at the beginning of last year, noting that the Houthi militias found themselves in a large quagmire of depletion in the vicinity of Marib, reinforced by several factors, including geography, military and international pressures.
The sources pointed out that the year-long battles in the vicinity of Marib led to the departure of a number of government military brigades from readiness, and they were replaced by new brigades, while the militias continued their rush in a chaotic and absurd war, in Marib, Al-Jawf and other areas, despite the massive depletion of their elements, without To make any progress.
