UAE prepares for anticipated confrontation with Islah Party in Taiz

TAIZ, July 15 (YPA) – Large military units of the so-called “Guardians of the Republic”, backed by the UAE, continued on Saturday their incursion into the western coast and the city of al-Turbah in Taiz province, southwest Yemen, local media sources said.

This comes with the aim of controlling the sites under the control of the Islah Party forces loyal to the Saudi-led coalition in Al-Hujaria areas in Taiz.

According to the sources, elements affiliated with the Guardians of the Republic led by “Tariq Saleh”, a member of the coalition-formed “Presidential Leadership Council”, began to establish military sites in the areas adjacent to Al-Turbah city, which hosts one of the largest camps of the so-called “Taiz axis” controlled by the Saudi-backed Islah forces.

The sources added that the elements of “Tariq Saleh” are planning to establish new camps in the mountain range overlooking the Al-Shamaytain district, whose center is the city of al-Turbah, which is of strategic and geographical importance.
