Saudi-led coalition forces have taken control of Al Najd, a strategic area linking Aden and Taiz. Militias have been trying to control the area to cut off the coalition’s supplies and armaments coming from Aden, Sky News Arabia reported on Sunday.
On Saturday evening, dozens of platoons of the people’s resistance advanced to the peak of Jabal Saber, overlooking Taiz, aiming to cut off the supply route for Houthi militias.
According to Sky News Arabia, on Saturday, the coalition’s air force shelled Houthi sites for the first time.
Meanwhile, violent confrontations between Houthi militias on one hand, and the Yemeni National Army and the people’s resistance on the other are ongoing at the border posts between Taiz and Haj, Yemeni sources said on Sunday.
