Speaking in an interview broadcast on Al Hadath TV, Saleh added that continued military operations by the Yemeni Armed Forces are expected to achieve further gains, following the launch of a large-scale offensive to restore state institutions and normal life for citizens.
He noted that Operation Dawn of Yemen has made significant progress around the Bab Al-Mandab area after repelling Houthi attacks in the Kahboub mountain range, shifting from defensive to decisive offensive maneuvers. Saleh explained that the Yemeni Armed Forces initiated their operations and carried out a counterattack using a flanking strategy.
