Hussein al-Bakhithi, a political analyst and journalist who monitors the Houthi movement, told Al Jazeera that the rebels are advancing and most of the fighting is advancing towards Marb province. They have the help of the locals in this work because if they don't help the Houthis, I don't think they will be able to advance even a meter.
On the other hand, the spokesman of the Houthis, Muhammad Abdul Salam, said in his tweet that the rebels are facing elements belonging to Al-Qaeda and Islamic State who are related to the invading forces in Al-Abdiyah. Not denied.
