Saudi-backed forces enter Houthis stronghold in southern Yemen
2017-12-25
[ALMASDARNEWS] The Saudi-backed Hadi loyalists managed to enter al-Bayda Governorate of southern Yemen, today, for the first time since they were expelled at the advent of this war.

The Hadi loyalists, alongside the UAE-backed Southern Resistance forces, were able to enter the Nu’man District of al-Bayda after launching a major attack on the defenses of the Houthis.

With their recent advance in the al-Bayda Governorate, the pro-government forces are now attempting to expel the remaining Houthis fighters from southern Yemen.

In response to the pro-government advance, the Houthis has sent reinforcements to the nearby Ta’iz Governorate in a bid to halt the former’s push towards the northern provinces of Sanaa, Sa’ada, and Hajjah.
