Joint Coalition Forces Advance in Dhubab Amid Houthi Militia Retreat
Joint forces comprised of the Giants Brigades, the Nation Shield, and the Subaiha tribes have achieved significant territorial gains in the Dhubab region, forcing Houthi militia units to retreat amid a rapid collapse of their defensive lines.
Military sources confirmed that the coalition forces successfully captured several strategic positions in and beyond Dhubab. The offensive has triggered widespread disarray within Houthi ranks, with reports of mass desertions and chaotic withdrawals as the joint forces maintain their momentum on the ground.
The tactical success in the region has reportedly caused alarm among Houthi leadership. Intelligence indicates that senior militia commanders have begun withdrawing from the city of Mocha toward Al-Khokha, fearing the continued advance of the Giants Brigades and their allied tribal partners.
This development follows a period of heightened hostility in the Taiz governorate, which has been plagued by ongoing conflict, humanitarian suffering, and frequent reports of civilian casualties resulting from Houthi ballistic missile strikes and sniper fire. The current gains represent a significant shift in the military landscape of the western coastal front.
