Hadramawt

Saudi Arabia recruited hundreds of Syrian extremist fighters and moved them into Yemen through its territory to replicate the fall of Assad, Houthi sources claim to the Hezbollah-linked Al-Akhbar.

The sources allege Turkey helped route the fighters to the Ma'rib, al-Jawf, Aden and Hadramawt fronts, and that Syrian factions were trained in the Saudi areas of al-Wadiah and Sharora.

The death toll has risen to 50 following strikes on Saudi-backed forces' camps in Hadramawt, Ar Rawiyah and Marib, Yemen. A large-scale Houthi military operation is expected in the coming hours.

At least 45 Yemeni government troops were killed in Houthi missile attacks in Marib and Hadramout provinces, Yemeni military sources told Al-Arabiya.

Dozens of Saudi-backed government troops were killed in Houthi attacks on their camps in Ma'rib, east of Sana'a, and in the Hadramout region deep in eastern Yemen, per foreign and Saudi media.

BREAKING 🔴

Houthi forces launched a missile attack on Yemeni government positions in Hadramout, southern Yemen, leaving multiple government troops killed and wounded.

Pakistani troops have arrived in Yemen's Shabwa and Hadramawt provinces, Lebanon's al-Akhbar reports citing local Yemeni sources. Clashes broke out in Hadramawt after Saudi-backed local forces refused to let the Pakistanis enter a military base. Local sources claim Saudi Arabia deployed the Pakistani forces to secure oil fields and replace UAE-aligned troops that controlled the area until a Saudi-pressured withdrawal last December.
