Yemeni Armed Forces Regain Initiative in Taiz, Inflicting Heavy Losses on Houthi Militias

The Yemeni Armed Forces have regained the battlefield initiative in Taiz Governorate, successfully repelling Houthi militia attacks and infiltration attempts across several fronts in recent hours.

A military source confirmed that units from the Armed Forces, Security, and Popular Resistance engaged in fierce confrontations in the directorates of Al-Shamaytayn, Al-Mawasit, and Al-Ma'afer. The source emphasized that government forces thwarted the movements of Houthi elements and solidified their defensive and offensive positions on these fronts.

The confrontations resulted in significant human losses for the Houthi militias, with hundreds killed and wounded. These casualties were attributed to well-executed ambushes, sniper fire, drone strikes, and precise airstrikes targeting militia reinforcements and military movements in various sectors.

In a related development, the Armed Forces have heightened their combat readiness across multiple fronts as part of strategic plans aimed at reclaiming territories still under militia control and restricting their military movements.

The military source concluded by commending the resilience of the people of Taiz Governorate, asserting that the region has proven impregnable to the militias and has become a zone of attrition for the group's fighters and its destructive agendas that threaten the nation's security and stability.
