Soddy warbirds hit Houthi targets in Dalia'a
2015-12-07
Arab Coalition forces launched several raids on Houthi militants and forces loyal to Saleh in Domt area in the Governorate of Dalia’a, sources told Sky News Arabic.

The Coalition also shelled rebel groups in Harib Directorate of Ma’arib in central Yemen, and targeted guerrilla positions at Sarwah - the road between Ma’arib and Sana’a in the north, reported Emarat Al Youm.

Meanwhile, popular resistance forces made significate advancements on the ground confronting Houthis and Saleh forces as fierce fighting was witnessed near the city of Sarwah in Ma’arib, a source was quoted as saying.

The popular resistance forces along with troops loyal to the legitimate army reached the outskirts of the city market in Sarwah, which is the last bastion of the militia in the province, it added.

The army has also captured the hills surrounding the market and the city is almost clear of Houthi or Saleh militants.

The source said that army and the forces freed most of the region of Nasaban Al-Ashkri, and Ra’abiah, too.

The progress on the ground came following a meeting of legitimate forces with local leaders and sheikhs in Ma’arib. It has been agreed to give leadership of the area to Sheikh Moardhy Dharman following its liberation, the report said.
