The National Shield Forces published a video documenting the tightening of control over the Dhubab Airport with the Southern Giants forces, after rumors spread by the Houthi media about the success of the militias in forcing the Giants and the National Shield to withdraw from the strategic airport on Bab al-Mandab.

This comes as the commander of the northern sector of the 22nd Mechanized Brigade in the Taiz axis, Nabil Al-Adimi, confirmed in a video clip from inside the city of Taiz that the forces defending the city will continue to confront the attacks of the Houthi militias, stressing that the Houthis will not be able to enter the city, and praising the steadfastness of its youth in defending it.

The Yemeni Armed Forces also published scenes of targeting operations targeting field commanders, reinforcements, means and military sites belonging to the Houthi militia, to dismantle its hostile capabilities and remove the sources of its threat.

Spokesman for the Yemeni Armed Forces: Scenes from the ongoing precise targeting operations carried out by our armed forces as part of Operation “Yemen Dawn” targeting field commanders, reinforcements, means and military sites belonging to the terrorist Houthi militia, to dismantle its hostile capabilities and remove sources of threat according to the operational plan https://t.co/CivX5I5m1h

The Houthi militias continued their attempts to control the strategic Han Mountain, west of the city of Taiz, in preparation for storming the city, by sending hundreds of elements in successive attacking lines.

The Yemeni government forces and the resistance responded to the attacks on Mount Han during violent night confrontations, during which the militias suffered hundreds of deaths and injuries, according to field information.

In the city of Taiz, which is inhabited by about 1.5 million people, the Houthis sent text messages threatening residents with “punishment,” in conjunction with threats to intensify the bombing of residential neighborhoods.

As for Al-Misrakh District, south of Taiz, warplanes launched 3 raids targeting Houthi sites.

In the Al Shaqab area, south of the city of Taiz, confrontations have been continuing for hours, coinciding with random Houthi bombing targeting residential villages in the Al Misrakh and Sabr Al Mawadim districts.

Meanwhile, militia members were killed and wounded in an ambush in the Al-Aqroud area, amid fierce battles being fought by the National Army and the resistance in the village of Al-Qahfa.

As for Lahj, the member of the Command Council, Commander-in-Chief of the Southern Armed Forces, Lieutenant General Abdul Rahman Al-Muharami Abu Zaraa, directed the dispatch of military reinforcements, including units from the Sixth Infantry Division, and support to the Mudaraba Front in the Sabiha area.
