Tribes and military leaders from Murad, Bani Abd and some Al-Bayda tribes collapsed on Sunday evening to the outskirts of Qaniya in preparation for the battle to restore the Qaniya front, which fell mostly during the day in the hands of the Houthi militia, two days after its control of Radman district north of Al-Bayda.
Field sources indicated that the Al-Aar Mountains, Masouda in Qaniya, Laghwal region , Al-Falaq Mountains, and Al-Domani, west of Qaniya, are still in the hands of the Houthi militia, amid accusations of the leadership of the Legitimacy Army of complicity in dropping it, despite the calls of the people of the region to support them.
