Translated Text: ⭕ Special sources: The Houthis have withdrawn five brigades from Taiz over the past two days; 3 of them heading toward eastern Marib and Al-Jawf, and 2 to Hodeidah. As a result, the Taiz fronts today have seen a lull in confrontations since the morning, with the Houthis relying on shelling, sniping, and specialized weapons such as Kornet missiles. These are indicators that confirm the Houthis expect the rest of the fronts to ignite within the next two days. More Sixth Military Region Command (MRC) reported drone strikes targeting Houthi barracks and combat vehicles
Translated Text: War in #Yemen #SITREP | October 22, 2026 | Yemen’s Armed Forces and allied formations have released new footage documenting continued military operations against Houthi forces across Al-Jawf, Ma’rib, and Taiz as part of Operation Dawn of Yemen #ODY. In Al-Jawf, the Sixth Military Region Command (MRC) reported drone strikes targeting Houthi barracks and combat vehicles. In Ma’rib, the Third MRC released additional footage showing artillery strikes against Houthi troop concentrations, barracks, and artillery emplacements along the southern front, alongside drone strikes targeting Houthi personnel and military equipment. In Taiz, the Yemeni Armed Forces @Yem_army_media and @axistaiz published footage of strikes targeting Houthi field commanders, reinforcements, and combat vehicles across multiple fronts. Separate footage documented ongoing clashes between government forces, supported by the Popular Resistance, and Houthi fighters along the western front. Separately, National Shield Forces @diralwatan reported that a drone operated by their First Division struck a Houthi vehicle in Wadi Mamer along the Al-Muhawalah front, completely destroying the vehicle and reportedly killing several Houthi fighters. Meanwhile, @aselsaqladi, spokesman for the Southern @SouthArmed Giants Brigades @alamalikah, praised his forces for their battlefield performance, describing their morale as high and their determination as unwavering despite continued fighting. He argued that Yemenis no longer need encouragement to fight the Houthis, citing years of alleged abuses and civilian suffering. Saqladi referred specifically to footage of a mother carrying the body of her daughter, reportedly killed in a Houthi attack, up a mountain in Taiz for burial. He described the incident as one of thousands of abuses that have gone undocumented. Houthis captured a major roadway segment that links Houthi front lines with Taiz
Text: NEW I The Houthis almost certainly captured a major roadway segment that links Houthi frontlines on the outskirts of Taiz City to other frontlines in central Taiz Governorate on October 22. The Houthis posted footage of fighters in vehicles at various geolocated positions along a segment of the Taiz-Aden ground line of communication (GLOC) in the al Dhabab valley between al Misrakh District and Taiz City's southwestern limits.
