—❗️🇸🇦/🇾🇪 Situation on the Bab Al-Mandab front as of ~1 hour ago:

– In the morning, PLC forces managed to capture the tip of Bab Al-Mandab known as ‘Murad’, as well as the Dhubab Airport, in a large scale operation that involved more than 100 Saudi fighter jets.

– Since the initial gains in the morning, the PLC has been unable to advance past Dhubab Airport into the town of Dhubab, or into Mokha, which lies behind it.

– The Al-Omari military camp, located on the strategic Omari mountain east of Dhubab, remains firmly under Ansarallah control, preventing the PLC from entering Dhubab or maintaining any meaningful presence at the Airport, which is practically no-man’s-land.

— 🇸🇦/🇾🇪 Houthis currently in Mokha: ‘We tell everyone; we won’t leave the city, we are right here, and the situation is fully under control’

@Middle_East_Spectator

Meanwhile PLC outlets broadcast in Mokha ‘from the middle of the city’
