Fighting Courses for Recruited Civilians Continue Non-stop in North Yemen

The Ansar Allah (Houthi) group launched general mobilization and recruitment of all state employees, sheikhs, and tribespeople in many provinces that they control in North Yemen. Such a move is part of their support for Palestinians in Gaza, the group says.

Sheba Intelligence obtained pictures of university lecturers in cultural and military training courses. The lecturers were taught how to use weapons. Judges also attended similar courses.

In one of the Houthi group’s circulars addressed to the Anas tribes in Dhamar, with its four tribes (Jabal al-Sharq, Jahran, Al-Manara, and Dhawaran), the group requested an armed tribal rally in Qaa Alhakl in Dhawaran district of Dhamar to “authorize the Houthi movement chief to adopt the appropriate choice” to confront the continued Israeli war on Gaza. The rally also celebrated the graduation of the fourth class of “Al-Aqsa Flood Army”.

Sources told Sheba Intelligence that the previous three classes of fighters that graduated in Dhamar were initially sent to Al-Hudaydah. Then, they were deployed to Al-Jawf and the surroundings of Marib under cover of a” military march on foot”.

The Houthi group says its war in the Red Sea will not stop regardless of the consequences, emphasizing that the end of its operations is linked to the end of the Israeli war on Gaza, where Israel has killed over 30000 since October last year.

With support from foreign experts, the group moved sophisticated military equipment to establish an operations room for launching missiles and drones from the provinces of Sa’ada and Al-Jawf, according to the sources.

A few days ago, the Houthi group transferred air defense systems and vehicles carrying missile launchers from areas in Mukayras Al-Bayda to the Al-Juba region, south of Marib, and missiles were also transferred from Al-Samaa camps in Sanaa to Al-Jawf and Saada.

Observers say that the Ansar Allah (Houthi) will likely focus on controlling the oil and gas areas in Marib and Shabwa whether the conflict in the Red Sea escalates or shrinks.
