🇮🇷🇺🇸⚡️ — Iranian Parliament Speaker Ghalibaf:

The Americans must have understood that the era of "proportional responses" is over.

Our strikes on the aggressors’ bases in recent operations were only the beginning.

If they have not understood this by now, they must do so before it is too late: the rules of the game have changed.

From now on, any aggression against Iran's interests will receive a faster, heavier, and more painful response.

🇾🇪⚔️🇾🇪 Latest Updates from the Taiz and Al-Hudaydah Fronts, September 6

🟡Clashes on the western axis of Taiz Governorate have intensified since the morning of September 3 along two fronts: the Hameer–Al-Kadaha axis and the Al-Barah front. Yemeni armed forces, alongside popular committees and backed by suicide drones and Rajoom hexacopters, have advanced on the northern and western fronts of Al-Kadaha and have seized control of Jabal Nu'man and Jabal Sheikh Sa'eed.

✍️ The significance of Jabal Nu'man lies in its role in consolidating the Yemeni army's positions in Al-Kadaha. Jabal Nu'man is lower in elevation than Jabal Habashi, but it serves as a considerable barrier against attacks by Saudi coalition forces on the Al-Kadaha area. In past years, forces of the resigned government managed to push the Yemeni army out of the Jabal Habashi heights, but those heights remain under the control of forces affiliated with the Islah Party and could easily be recaptured should Yemeni forces launch an operation. In recent years, Ansarallah has made considerable efforts to hold these positions, in order to maintain its presence near the Bab al-Mandab Strait and the port of Al-Mokha, and most importantly, to preserve the western front of Taiz.

👉 Meanwhile, on the Hays axis, Yemeni armed forces have intensified their attacks, and Tariq Saleh's forces are putting up resistance on the northern outskirts of Hays town. Tariq Saleh's forces have withdrawn from Jabal Dabbas, ceding this strategic elevation—which plays a key role in securing Hays—to the Yemeni armed forces. With this advance, the ground has been prepared for Yemeni fighters to liberate this town and the coastal town of Al-Khawkhah.

🟡The continuation of this momentum has thoroughly drained the military capacity of Tariq Saleh's forces, and his command structure is certainly unable to withstand the attacks by the Yemeni armed forces. This has prompted the Saudi coalition command to deploy other forces under its control—such as the Al-Amalqah or Al-Dira' Al-Watan forces—to this front, in order to prevent the possibility of a rapid Ansarallah advance toward the port of Al-Mokha. In this regard, Hamdi Shukri has traveled to Al-Mokha, and Al-Amalqah forces have launched an offensive on the southern front of Al-Jarahi to block the advance of Yemeni armed forces. There have also been reports of Tariq Saleh fleeing to the UAE, though these remain unconfirmed at this time.

🇷🇺⚔️🇺🇦 Situation on the Kazacha Lopany direction, Kharkov Oblast:

Over the last three weeks, heavy fighting has continued in and around Kazacha Lopany as Russian forces attempt to expand their zone of control across the international border.

In the northwest, Russian forces improved their positions around the town of Veterinarnoe, establishing a small buffer zone up to the low-lying ground. Meanwhile, the main push in Kazacha Lopany brought Russia additional results, as their assault groups consolidated in the northern and eastern streets, while infiltrators penetrated further south into the southern parts of the town. Attacks were also carried out west from Kazacha Lopany, however Russia is struggling to further improve their positions throughout the sector now due to a tight Ukrainian FPV drone kill-zone imposed on their supply routes.

To the east, the Russians cleared a new section of the border southeast of Granov and began attacking further south towards the highway. Additionally, they advanced from the Goptovka border crossing and captured a section of the highway, before infiltrating west into the village of Kudievka.

🇷🇺⚔️🇺🇦 Situation on the Bely Kolodez and Veliky Burluk directions, Kharkov Oblast:

Over the last few weeks, Russian forces continued their offensive operations in the northeastern corner of Kharkov Oblast, where they are still trying to cut off the Ukrainian formations there.

In the west, Russian forces advanced further south from Pokalyanoe, capturing new positions along the treelines on the tactical heights and infiltrating the first streets of Bely Kolodez. Other assault groups continued fighting for Zakharovka, Vasylovka and Ivanovka, where Ukrainian forces are counterattacking. Renewed assault operations are also being carried out on the treelines east of Okhrimovka and Chaikovka.

In the east, the Russians cleared the village of Anishchino and infiltrated further south into the villages of Vodyanoe and Olkhovatka, where heavy fighting is now underway. Infiltrations are also taking place towards the villages of Dolzhanka, Chornoe, Kupino, and Shyrokoe, however newly arrived Ukrainian reinforcements are intensifying their counterattacks. Other Russian assault groups improved their positions in the treelines west of Artyolnoe and reached the southern edge of Ozyornoe.

🇷🇺⚔️🇺🇦 Situation on the Kupyansk direction, Kharkov Oblast:

Over the last month, the intensity of fighting southeast of Kupyansk has decreased, although Russian forces continue to slowly clear the Ukrainian bridgehead east of the Oskol River as Ukraine faces deteriorating logistical issues.

Russian forces improved their positions in the treelines of Novoosinovo and gained a foothold in the eastern part of the town. Other assault groups cleared new parts of the high-rise buildings in Kovsharovka and reached the centre of the town. Meanwhile, fighting continues for the central, southern, and eastern parts of Kupyansk-Uzlovoy where a large grey-zone remains. Russian assault groups also resumed attacks on Ukrainian positions in the forests southeast of the town.

🇷🇺⚔️🇺🇦 Situation on the Lyman direction, Donetsk Oblast:

Over the last 10 days, Ukrainian forces continued their localised counteroffensive north of (Krasny) Lyman and have made additionally significant progress, threatening the Russian salient with a physical encirclement.

In the northeast, Ukrainian forces continued their main thrust towards the Zherebets River. After occupying the main Russian strongpoints on the tactical heights, they continued pushing southeast down the ridgeline, entering several new treeline positions and capturing a number of forested areas further east. They also managed to improve their positions west of the tributary of the Zherebets River south of Nove, capturing new forested areas towards Zelyonaya Dolina from the east. From here, Ukrainian forces are penetrating further east through the forested areas towards the Donetsk-Lugansk regional border and the village of Ivanovka, while other assault groups resume attacks towards Zelyonaya Dolina from the north.

To the west, the Ukrainians recaptured positions northeast of Srednie following earlier Russian counterattacks and began advancing south down the eastern bank of the Nitrius river towards Shandrigolovo, aiming to link up with their forces attacking from the south. Other assault groups are also advancing south down the western bank of the River, reaching the northern outskirts of Srednie as Russian forces slowly withdraw eastwards.

To the southwest, Russian forces continue to retreat from their bridgehead west of the Nitrius River, allowing Ukrainian forces to clear numerous treelines and forested areas southeast of Korovy Yar and east of Alexandrovka. Additionally, Ukrainian forces re-established full control over the main part of the Svety Gory National Park and the neighbouring forested areas, allowing them to approach Shandrigolovo from the west.

To the southeast, Russian forces retreated from the village of Novosyolovka allowing Ukraine to re-establish full control over it, as well as the forests and treelines to the north. This has, in turn, allowed Ukraine to intensify their infiltrations into the centre of Shandrigolovo from the south and enter Derilovo from the west. Meanwhile, other Ukrainian assault groups cleared the last remaining parts of Drobyshevo, officially securing the entire town, and began pushing beyond it into the nearby treelines further northeast.

To the east, the Ukrainians consolidated in the forests north of Stavky and deepened their infiltrations north into the forested gullies west of Kolodezi, attacking north, northwest, and northeast. Other assault groups managed to infiltrate the western part of Kolodezi and are trying to capture the centre of the village. The fall of Kolodezi would effectively encircle Russian forces north of Lyman. Additionally, other Ukrainian forces resumed infiltrations into the northwestern streets of Zarichnoe (Kirovsk).
