Maj. Gen. Abubakr al-Jabouli, commander of the Tur al-Bahah Axis and the 4th Mountain Infantry Brigade, continued field visits to frontline positions in southern Taiz on Monday.

The visits covered positions stretching from Bani Omar and Jarad to the outskirts of Al-Wazi'iyah district, including the Rasin and Al-Alqamah fronts near the border with Al-Mudharabah district in Lahj.

During his visit to the Rasin-Al-Alqamah front, al-Jabouli received a briefing on the military situation and developments within the sector. He praised the troops for maintaining their positions and said forces were continuing their assigned duties against the Houthis.

Al-Jabouli said Tur al-Bahah Axis forces remained at a high level of combat readiness and were prepared to respond to developments along the front. He also claimed that Houthi forces had suffered heavy losses during recent clashes and military operations in the area. He called for increased vigilance, operational discipline and continued readiness.
