Dhamar clerics meeting in Marib calls for support for government forces
Government-run Saba reported a meeting in Marib of clerics and preachers from Dhamar, attended by Governor Ali Al-Qawsi, to discuss support for government forces in Operation Dawn of Yemen. Participants called for a unified message, public mobilisation and support for fighters’ morale. This is a political and mobilisation position from the government side, not evidence of a military advance or mobilisation already carried out.
