Yemeni forces target Houthi positions in Al-Jawf with airstrikes and drones

Yemeni armed forces have maintained their operations targeting Iran-backed Houthi militants in Al-Jawf province, as part of the "Dawn of Yemen" campaign. According to the Yemeni Armed Forces Media Center, troops operating in the Sixth Military Region on the southern and southeastern fronts of Al-Jawf have been engaged in intense battles against the Houthi militia for three consecutive days.

These forces have been backed by fighter jets and drones, which have targeted Houthi gatherings and positions, resulting in casualties for both sides. Meanwhile, on the eastern fronts of Al-Jawf, the armed forces are clearing areas in the Dahizah mountain range, having secured positions in the Qarn Al-Sayari and Malfaifah mountains.

This progress has led to further losses for the militia, who have encountered human and material setbacks due to the Yemeni forces' advances. Supported by the First and Second Emergency Forces brigades, Yemeni troops are pressing forward into Houthi-controlled areas, breaching fortifications and trench networks while neutralizing mines and explosive devices planted by the militia.
