Ansarullah Gains Fresh Territory in Abyan, Drives out Al-Qaeda Terrorists

The Ansarullah fighters along with army units continued to make gains in their fight against the Saudi-backed al-Qaeda Takfiri group on Sunday, flushing out the terrorists from a town in Abyan province.

According to reports, the popular forces made major advances in South-central Yemen and drove out al-Qaeda from al-Wadhi area in Ahwar town.

Also on Saturday, the Ansarullah forces advanced towards Kowfal camp in Ma’rib province, after killing scores of the al-Qaeda terrorists.

Earlier, the Yemeni troops made major gains in Sarvah district of Ma’rib province, and killed Bin Aboud, the notorious al-Qaeda leader and more than 25 other terrorists.

The Ansarullah fighters and the army troops have made major advances in their fight against the terrorists across Yemen.

The clashes between the Ansarullah fighters and the Saudi-backed al-Qaeda terrorists as well as the pro-Hadi militias continue in the Southern parts of the country as Saudi Arabia has been striking Yemen for 25 days now to restore power to fugitive president Mansour Hadi, a close ally of Riyadh. The Saudi-led aggression has so far killed at least 2,655 Yemenis, including hundreds of women and children.

Hadi stepped down in January and refused to reconsider the decision despite calls by Ansarullah revolutionaries of the Houthi movement.

Despite Riyadh’s claims that it is bombing the positions of the Ansarullah fighters, Saudi warplanes are flattening residential areas and civilian infrastructures.

Five Persian Gulf States — Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Bahrain, Qatar and Kuwait — and Egypt that are also assisted by Israel and backed by the US declared war on Yemen in a joint statement issued on March 26.
