[1:28](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Yxs5bnqOPnAa/en/military-developments-in-al-jawf-and-marib-al-yatmah-al-labanat-and-raghwan?t=88) After their repeated defeats in the al-Yatama area, they tried to advance toward al-Labanat Camp, but, as every time, their offensives were repelled without making any progress.

[1:40](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Yxs5bnqOPnAa/en/military-developments-in-al-jawf-and-marib-al-yatmah-al-labanat-and-raghwan?t=100) In renewed attempts, this time they tried to advance toward the al- Duhayda Heights.

[1:49](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Yxs5bnqOPnAa/en/military-developments-in-al-jawf-and-marib-al-yatmah-al-labanat-and-raghwan?t=109) Despite extensive air support, a wide- ranging military assault, and substantial media support, they were unable to advance or reach the al- Duhayda Heights, despite their repeated claims in the media.

[2:08](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Yxs5bnqOPnAa/en/military-developments-in-al-jawf-and-marib-al-yatmah-al-labanat-and-raghwan?t=128) By contrast, Sanaa forces advanced on the Ragwan front and managed to take the strategically important al- Hazum Mountains, which overlook the center of Ragwan District, on the way to taking control of Ragwan District.

[2:25](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/Yxs5bnqOPnAa/en/military-developments-in-al-jawf-and-marib-al-yatmah-al-labanat-and-raghwan?t=145) After taking control of Ragwan District, an attack on Marib city from three fronts becomes possible.
