Yemeni Government Forces Secure Strategic Position in Taiz Province

Government forces in Yemen successfully recaptured the strategic Al-Khazan hill in the Jabal Habashi district, west of Taiz, following intense clashes with Houthi militants on Friday.

According to the Taiz Axis Media Center, government troops engaged in heavy fighting across multiple frontlines in the western part of the province. The operation culminated in the retaking of Al-Khazan hill, a key tactical position that has been a focal point of recent military efforts in the region.

Military officials confirmed that combat operations remain ongoing in the Maqbana and Al-Kadaha fronts. Government forces are currently reinforcing their positions as part of a broader campaign to counter Houthi advancements in the area.

The western frontlines of Taiz have witnessed a significant escalation in hostilities in recent days. While government forces continue to mobilize reinforcements, Houthi militants are simultaneously attempting to intensify their military operations along the strategic Red Sea coastal fronts.
