Yemeni army forces announced that they had repelled Houthi attacks on several battlefronts in the governorates of Marib (East) and Al-Jawf (North of the country), noting that one soldier was killed and others were injured in the ranks of the Yemeni forces.
Military sources told the army website “September Net” that the armed forces thwarted hostile operations by the Houthi militias on the “Ragwan” front, north of Marib Governorate, and forced them to retreat and flee.
They added that the militia suffered losses in lives and equipment, while one of the heroes of the armed forces was martyred and others were injured.
“At the same time, the Houthi militias continued their hostile actions by targeting military positions in various sectors with heavy artillery, Katyusha rockets, drones, and sniper weapons,” they said.
They pointed out that the armed forces destroyed heavy vehicles and equipment in several sectors on the fronts of Marib and Al-Jawf governorates, which the militias were using to create fortifications and build new roads in the front areas.
The sources noted that “during the past weeks, the Houthi militias have pushed transport equipment and excavators to the contact areas and are creating trenches and building earthen barriers, in addition to planting mines in many areas.”
