A military source said that violent confrontations broke out in the northern front of Taiz, after elements of the Houthi militia managed to infiltrate into the vicinity of the School of July 7 in the Al-Rawda area.

According to the source, the army personnel in those locations were surprised that the Houthis reached the vicinity of the school, attacked the army sites.

The School of July 7 overlooks the Taiba Hospital and the Asifrah tour, and is not far from the official street in the Al-Rawda area, which is controlled by gunmen affiliated with the Islah leader Sheikh Hammoud al-Mikhlafi.

Colonel Abdulbasit al-Bahar, deputy moral directive in the Taiz axis, said Al-Arbaeen Front Northeast of the city witnessed violent clashes while the National Army in Taiz confronted the enemy's attempts to infiltrate the army sites there.

Al-Bahar added that the Iranian-backed Houthi coup enemy is mobilizing and preparing for a strong attack on the Taiz fronts in revenge for the killing of a senior commander, as they say, but our heroes are on the lookout.

According to Al-Bahar, the result of this failed infiltration was the death of 2 Houthi militia members and the injury of 3 others, while the rest of the attackers fled, leaving their guns behind, while one of the army heroes was wounded as a result of a mine explosion planted by the militias.
