Yemeni army makes strategic gains east of Hodeidah
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] The Yemeni armed forces made strategic gains on Sunday after reaching al-Saleh city east of Hodeidah as fierce battles are being fought beyond the Kilo 19 area.

The Yemeni Defense Ministry said that those advances were made by the national army’s elite unit- the Giant Brigades- and local forces known by the name Tihama Resistance- loyal to Yemeni President Abedrabbo Mansour Hadi and fighting alongside the Arab coalition backing the legitimate government.

The national army also took control of the "Yemen
...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of. Except for a tiny handfull of Jews everthing there is very Islamic...
Mobile" roundabout, gaining control of the faculty of Engineering in the city.

The Yemeni army battled the Houthi
...a Zaidi Shia insurgent group operating in Yemen. They have also been referred to as the Believing Youth. Hussein Badreddin al-Houthi is said to be the spiritual leader of the group and most of the military leaders are his relatives. The Yemeni government has accused the Houthis of having ties to the Iranian government, which wouldn't suprise most of us. The group has managed to gain control over all of Saada Governorate and parts of Amran, Al Jawf and Hajjah Governorates.
