On Wednesday, the Yemeni warplanes targeted reinforcements and gatherings of the Houthis in Marib Governorate, as part of ongoing military operations taking place on the fronts of the governorate in recent weeks.

A correspondent for "Al Arabiya" reported that the Yemeni warplanes targeted Houthi reinforcements in the Al-Jawbah district, south of Marib.

The aircraft also launched strikes on Houthi gatherings along the contact lines in the southern part of the governorate, while no immediate information was available regarding the casualties resulting from the operations.

These strikes come days after military operations targeted Houthi positions in the same area. On September 26, Yemeni forces targeted gatherings and weapon depots of the Houthis in the Al-Jawbah district, coinciding with a drone strike that targeted a vehicle loaded with weapons in the Al-Kasara front, northwest of Marib, according to a correspondent for "Al Arabiya/Al Hadath."

Marib witnessed an escalation in confrontations on the southern, western, and northern fronts during September, amid mutual shelling and the use of drones to target military sites and movements.

On September 19, military sources reported that Yemeni forces engaged in battles with the Houthis on the Al-Mashjah front west of Marib, while airstrikes targeted reinforcements and gatherings in the Am Rish camp and the former 26th Brigade in the Al-Jawbah district, in addition to the Mal'aq pass in Harib in the southern part of the governorate. The sources also mentioned at the time the thwarting of infiltration attempts in Wadi Dhanna and Al-Balq.

Recent developments indicate that part of the military operations continues to focus on Al-Jawbah, as field reports during September indicated that the Houthis were sending military reinforcements to the district from Al-Bayda governorate.

Marib is one of the most prominent battlefields between government forces and the Houthis, while the contact lines in the southern part of the governorate are witnessing mutual military movements and operations.
