Afghan Voice Agency (AVA): While Saudi Arabia has resorted to mobilizing its mercenaries against Sanaa in order to counter the Yemeni equations under the title of "siege against siege and escalation against escalation", with the aim of diverting the attention of the Yemeni armed forces into the country, military clashes between Sanaa forces and mercenaries and elements affiliated with Saudi Arabia have spread from west of Taiz to south of Hudaydah and are expected to continue for weeks, especially given the lack of any effort to reduce tensions.
Despite the Saudi-affiliated mercenary government in Aden admitting the casualties suffered by its forces on the rural fronts west of Taiz and the loss of several positions, the Saudis and their mercenaries are counting on the time factor to change the course of the battle.
Meanwhile, information indicates that the Sana'a armed forces are maintaining most of their gains on the newly flared fronts and are trying to secure and return to normal the areas they have captured.
In this regard, field sources told Al-Akhbar newspaper that after the arrival of reinforcements from the Fourth Military Region affiliated with the Aden mercenary government to support the Saudi mercenary forces, clashes between these elements and the Sana'a forces on the west coast have resumed.
Significant advances by the Sana'a forces in Taiz
These sources emphasized that these movements by the Saudi mercenaries are aimed at preventing the advance of the Sana'a forces and their reaching the strategic areas overlooking the Bab al-Mandab Strait. However, Sana’a forces have advanced in large areas of the Jabal Habashi district in Taiz and its surroundings, including the strategic area of Jabal Nu’man, the western heights of Bani Bakri and the areas of Hamra, Al-Quz Al-Asfal, Al-Rahba, Al-Ahtub, Al-Tuweer and Al-Kuwayh, in addition to the hills of Al-Khazan and Masna and the strategic mountain ranges overlooking the villages of Al-Afayrah, Al-Nuwaiha and Al-Adhir.
According to the report, while Saudi mercenary elements were trying to retake some of these areas, Sana’a forces consolidated their positions in Hamair, Al-Mutahn, Al-Suda and Al-Gili, and made advances in the Aqma area in Muza’a district and several strategic hills.
At the same time, the fighting between the two sides spread to some areas in Maqbaneh district, while clashes continued on the Al-Kadha front and in the Debs mountain range overlooking the Hays region, where Ansar Allah clashed with groups loyal to Tariq Saleh and other Salafi groups.
Several sources familiar with the fighting reported that the clashes on the coastal axis around the city of Hays, south of Hodeidah, were the most intense in recent years.
According to Al-Akhbar, while the Sanaa forces did not release any details about the clashes (either west of Taiz or south of Hodeidah), local sources on the west coast reported that the fighting, using a variety of weapons, took place in the Barasha mountain range and Jabal Debs, which is considered a strategic area.
According to the report, the Sanaa forces were able to inflict heavy blows on the Saudi mercenaries and made significant advances without suffering any casualties themselves.
Sanaa calls for the return of Yemenis who have fallen into the trap of mercenaries for the enemy
At the same time, the command of the Yemeni forces in Hodeidah province called on all Yemenis who have gone astray and fallen into the trap of the enemy to return to their homeland as soon as possible and leave the positions affiliated with Saudi Arabia.
The command stressed that Yemen is big enough for all its children and that the rights and property of those who return are protected.
Abdullah Atefi, the governor of Hodeidah, said in a statement released by the governorate's media center that this is "a call to stop the bloodshed and save those who have gone astray and are serving the enemy."
