Ansar Allah (Houthi) group has moved drones and missiles to Al-Bayda in central Yemen and Al-Jand Airport in Taiz province, informed sources told Sheba Intelligence on Monday.

 

The weapons movement and the military preparations indicate a possible escalation in the Taiz and Al-Bayda fronts, which are connected to the Yafa areas in the south. According to the sources, the Houthi transfer of weapons to these areas appears as an arrangement for military advance towards areas under the control of the Yemeni government and the Southern Transitional Council (STC).

 

On Saturday, the Houthi group attacked a parade ceremony of Yemeni government forces in the Alab Axis in Saada, killing at least one soldier and many others injured. Last week, a Houthi drone targeted a location on the southern border of Saudi Arabia, killing four Bahraini soldiers.

 

The drone attack on the southern border of Saudi Arabia constitutes a serious threat to the peace process and regional stability, said the UN Security Council (UNSC) in a statement late Friday.

 

Sheba Intelligence published a report about training operations for the Houthis in Al-Luhyha on the Red Sea coast, and informed sources said this training poses a new threat to the international shipping routes amidst the Muscat faltering peace talks between Saudi Arabia and Houthis.
