Yemen Conflict Update and Analysis

Is the Houthi Ansar Allah group under pressure at this

time?

Dear brother, in any battle and on any front there will be advances, as

happened in Taiz, Al-Turba and Al-Safiya. Control has been established

So far, ninety percent of all of Saada Governorate is under

the control of the Yemeni army in Sana'a, whereas previously

weeks ago, the Saudi-backed government controlled

seventy percent.

Therefore, there will certainly be advances in places, and the other side is trying

to make an attempt in Dhubab. Yesterday, it was repelled, and they were

targeted and killed, according to Brigadier General Yahya Saree. Dozens were killed

and there was destruction. Dozens were killed, and many vehicles were destroyed.

Therefore,

in war, it is natural for there to be resistance. But, dear brother, we must

always note that the media always engage in propaganda. I noticed the colleague who had

the map with him was talking about Sana'a when he said he was talking about

The battles in Marib, he said, are 100 kilometers from Sana'a.

That is, 100 kilometers from Sana'a, while the battles are one and a half to two

kilometers from the city of Marib.

The Yemeni army forces in Sana'a control twelve out of fourteen

districts in Marib Governorate. Only the city itself remains

and the Al-Sahra or Al-Wadi district. Therefore, there is an attempt to portray everything

the Yemeni army does and all its victories as if they were

defeats. That is, 100 kilometers from Sana'a, 100

kilometers, meaning they will advance overnight, and before we know it,

they will be inside Sana'a. As for my dear brother's question.

The question is about the areas that have been brought under control.

The Yemeni government forces control Al-Mokha.

They announced control over many areas, and now they are in a defensive phase,

as they say, and that this is a natural phase in any conflict.

The question is about the balance of power. Is it in their favor at this

stage?

Yes.

Yes, certainly, my dear brother, if they can repel an attack and an operation

called Yemen Dawn and Saudi air power, and Saudi Arabia admitted

and I thank it for that, that it indeed intervened and launched hundreds of

airstrikes. This only proves that they still have the ability to

repel and attack, and all the attacks they carried out yesterday were broken.

For example, yesterday I read that government forces

Yemeni forces control Mokha, its port, and Dhubab in Taiz, and continue

Yemeni forces control Mokha, its port, and Dhubab in Taiz, and continue

advancing toward Al Khawkhah on the western coast. News hashtag.

This was news from Al Masirah Channel—from, sorry, Al Jazeera.

Why? That is, they took the narrative from the government.

Reporting narratives does not mean adopting a position, Mr. Hussein.

Reporting narratives does not mean adopting a position, Mr. Hussein.

Reporting the narratives of the parties does not mean adopting any position.

But my question to you is also, logically, over this

long period of mutual targeting.

You mentioned air power, while on the other side, there are drones

for Ansar Allah. Is the balance of power tilted?

For the Houthis or for the government forces that you say have strong coalition support?

تقول لديها دعم كبير من التحالف؟

Yes, dear brother, I also spoke yesterday and said and today I repeat that the Yemeni army

and what Saudi Arabia did yesterday by attempting an attack

in the Dhubab area will open the gates of hell on Saudi Arabia.

We noted that over the past 24 hours, Abha Airport was targeted twice,

Riyadh Airport, Aramco, Rabigh, Khamis Mushait Air Base, Akifah Camp in Asir, and sites in

Najran and Jizan. So, who holds the initiative? Has this

so-called

Dawn of Yemen affected any operations carried out by the Yemeni army?

There has also been major progress in the remaining areas

in Taiz Governorate and around the Turbah area.

The focus only, Mr. Hussein, is on long-range missiles,

on missiles, as you mentioned. Will this

change the balance of power if the government forces

speak of support, continuity, and

capabilities now regarding air power?

So, this is the balance of power for you.

Clear?

Yes, dear brother, yes, brother.

Dear brother, now, what Sana'a has in terms of power is power on the

ground, which is advancing, controlling, and holding the areas where they

are, and advancing as well. This is what happened on the western coast and in Taiz

Governorate. They also have the ability to strike at long range, as even

Saudi territory deep inside Riyadh is being targeted, as well as the targeting of

Saudi enemy gatherings and troop build-ups in

Lahij, when they were trying to advance toward the Dhubab area.

Also, dear brother, Yemeni drones can strike any target that

belongs to Saudi Arabia, whether inside Yemen or within Saudi territory.

That's all, dear brother. I mean, I know Al Jazeera broadcasts, as I said,

statements, or whatever the two sides declare, but publishing

yesterday's news was not as a quotation. There was an emphasis that it was

a fact and that this is what happened now.

You may note, and we may report the news in the framing we see fit.

Appropriate under our editorial policy. Thank you very much, Hussein

Al-Bukhaili.
