Dubai: The Saudi-led coalition fighting to support the legitimacy in Yemen
said it has foiled an attempted terror attack by an unmanned drone in Saudi Arabia’s southern city of Abha, the Saudi-owned Al Arabiya television channel reported on Saturday.
The coalition said it has destroyed the drone as it attempted to approach Abha airport, which was operating normally, according to Al Arabiya.
Meanwhile, with the support of the UAE Armed Forces operating as part of the Saudi- led coalition in Yemen, the Yemeni National and Tihama Resistance Forces, and the Giants’ Brigades continued advancing towards the Al Jah
area in the Bayt Al Faqih District, reaching within 50km of the strategic Hodeida port.
This comes amid an unprecedented state of confusion, panic and collapse in Al Houthi militia defences and ranks, as a result of the surprise military operations. The Emirates Red Crescent (ERC), meanwhile, distributed urgent relief, including 550 food baskets, to needy areas of Rudum district in Shabwa Governorate. Officials of the district hailed the efforts of the ERC to support the poor families.
Advance towards Al Jah
Aden: With the support of the UAE Armed Forces operating as part of the Saudi-led coalition in Yemen, the Yemeni National and Tihama Resistance Forces, and the Giants’ Brigades continued advancing towards the Al Jah area in the Bayt Al Faqih District, reaching within 50km of the strategic Hodeida port.
This comes amid an unprecedented state of confusion, panic and collapse in Al Houthi militia defences and ranks, as a result of the surprise military operations.
The resistance forces found — during the combing and purging operations - very large quantities of weapons, ammunitions and military equipment and vehicles after the militia fled Al Mugris and the farms they were hiding in within the Tahita district.
The Iran-allied Houthis militias are losing ground as resistance forces make sweeping advances towards the city of Hodeida and its port.
The militants have suffered severe blows and heavy casualties in equipment and personnel, while dozens of their fighters have fled the battlegrounds.
A Yemeni military source said thanks to the massive air support by Arab Coalition jet fighters, the resistance forces have liberated many strategic areas, including Zubaid and Jubaliya junctions, Matina, Al Mugris, Al Mujalis and Al Suwaiq.
“The successive fatal blows have paralysed and confused the militias, leaving them unable to even take along their weapons and their dead,” the source stated.
“Many desperate and defeated militants have been arrested by the resistance forces,” he added.
The Iran-allied militias have suffered major collapses in their ranks and defences thanks to the large-scale operations launched to liberate the Hodeida city and expel the militia.
With major advances made by the resistance along the Red Sea Coast, the coup is nearing its end.
