—❗️🇾🇪/🇸🇦 BREAKING: Ansarallah have captured Hawab mountain and Harooz mountain in Lahij Governorate, in a push that threatens to cut off PLC forces on Yemen’s southern coast

The Southern Giants Brigades stationed in Ras Al-Arah, which previously carried out two failed counteroffensives in the Dhubab direction, are under a very high threat of encirclement.

With their rear flanks not secured, it is currently impossible for the PLC to attempt any new counteroffensives towards Bab Al-Mandab.
