    Local report names four Al-Aqroud fighters said to have died in combat

    Citing local sources, Crater Sky reported the deaths of Khaled Abdu al-Ghani al-Qahtani, Fahim Ahmed Hazaa Abdullah, Bashar Mohammed Ali Saif and Mohammed Mansour Abdullah Qaid al-Jaradi on the Jabal Sabr front south of Taiz. It said the four came from Al-Aqroud and died on the same day, without identifying that day. Neither their identities nor the deaths have been independently verified; publication of the list does not establish that the deaths occurred within the monitoring window.

  2. UnverifiedMarib and Al-Jawf

    Unnamed sources report Marib reinforcements and advances near Al-Duhaydah

    Aden Al-Ghad and Crater Sky, citing unnamed field sources, reported reinforcements reaching the northwestern Marib front, positions recaptured in Halhalan and advances near Al-Duhaydah in Al-Jawf. Neither text identifies the recaptured positions, gives the time of the operations or provides independent evidence of control. Repetition across the outlets does not establish that their sources are independent, and advances on both fronts have been reported previously.
