Yemeni analyst: Houthis tightening siege on Taiz to suppress resistance

Yemeni political analyst Mohammed Balfakhr said Houthi forces have targeted Taiz for years and are seeking to tighten their siege on the city, as it remains a center of military, political, intellectual, and cultural resistance.

Speaking in an interview with Al Ekhbariya TV, Balfakhr added that the people of Taiz supported the September Revolution and rejected the imamate system, and continue to oppose its resurgence in a new form.

Balfakhr noted that the Houthis are working to increase the blockade of Taiz, and pointed to what he described as the UN Security Council's lack of action regarding the situation in the city.
