TAIZ, July 1 (YPA) – The Saudi-backed Islah Party on Wednesday deployed its militants and surrounded al-Shamayatayn district of Taiz province, sources said.

The sources confirmed that the Islah moves came over to be prepared for downfall and control of Brigade 35, which is under the control of Abu Al-Abbas groups and Tarik Afash backed by the UAE.
