In the southern province of Taez, the Yemeni army and the Committees continued their progress in Al-Settin road towards Mekhlaf-Shera'b area to liberate it from the operating takfiri groups.

In the meantime, the Saudi-US aggression targeted the provinces of Saada in the north and Lahej in the south, in addition to carrying out three raids over the main road linking Sanaa to Ma'rib in Al-A'roosh area.

Moreover, in the capital Sanaa, the security forces managed to foil two terrorist attacks and dismantled an improvised explosive device planted under an oil tanker in the city. The security personnel also defused a car loaded with explosive barrels near Al-Iman university.
