Jawf (Debriefer) - The Yemeni official government troops have made ground advances in many fronts, the armed forces' media center tweeted on Monday, after battles with Houthi fighters in the northern governorate of Jawf.
"Supported by popular resistance, the army troops are constantly advancing in many fronts in Jawf, as battles still continuing," the center claimed.
Fighting left grave losses to the Houthi ranks, it added without further details.
Hostilities have significantly increased for two weeks between Yemen's national army and Houthis in the northeastern governorates of Marib and Jawf.
The Houthis are relentlessly trying to infiltrate government troops' sites and take control of more areas, in order to gain a leverage at future negotiations.
