Yemen: Iran-backed Houthi rebels retake positions in south Yemen
Yemen’s Iran-backed rebels have regained several positions lost in recent months across the country’s south, in a fresh push towards the Gulf-backed government’s temporary headquarters in port city Aden, military sources said Sunday
In Lahj province, which borders Aden, rebels are now positioned on a hill overlooking the strategic Al-Anad airbase, according to the sources.
The base currently houses Sudanese forces from a Saudi-led coalition that has been battling rebels across Yemen since March.
