Yemeni Forces Capture Strategic Area in Marib (+Video)
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The media wing of Yemeni Ansarullah movement released a video showing the forces taking control of the highly important Jabal Salb heights and its adjacent west of the city of Marib during the Bunyan Al-Marsous (Solid Structure) military operations.
The footage shows the forces storming the strategic Jabal Salb Mountain, and taking control of a number of fortified positions in the area as well as seizing multiple Saudi-led forces’ tanks and armored vehicles.
Another part of the video shows the panic-stricken Saudi-backed forces fleeing the battleground, leaving their vehicles and wounded comrades behind.
More reports said Ansarullah forces are now at the western outskirts of Marib, marking the first time during the five-year-long conflict that their troops have reached this area in northern Yemen.
This latest advance comes at a time when the Saudi-backed troops in northern Yemen attempt to reclaim areas lost in the neighboring Al-Jawf province.
