The Yemeni war (2015-present) began between two factions claiming to constitute the Yemeni government. Houthi forces allied with forces loyal to the former president Ali Abdullah Saleh confronted forces loyal to the Saudi-backed government of Abdrabbuh Mansur Hadi.
In March 2015, Houthi-Saleh forces captured Sana, the last remaining stronghold of pro-Hadi forces. Hadi fled to Saudi Arabia that responded with a large-scale invasion to Yemen in an attempt to re-establish its proxy in power.
ISIS and al-Qaeda were also involved in the conflict, carrying out attacks across the country.
I hope the Houthis have thought through this withdrawal from the port – if taken by the Coalition, it gives the Coalition a forward base with secure sea based supply to launch offensives. One reason to be optimistic – if the UN lets the Coalition waltz in, the UN will never be able to broker end of hostilities or any negotiation for that matter for the foreseeable future.
One note, as expected, prior Southfront article showing Harad about to be encircled in a Coalition pincer movement was total BS. The situation has not changed according to the map.
I personally do not think the withdraw from the port was a good move; we shall see.
Regards your last paragraph. I must agree some of the maps seem updated or produced is a futuristic way – but I would not read to mush into that as they are quickly corrected; it is still the best for me.
Happy New Year and a prosperous and peaceful one at that.
Come on Houthis, may the 1 God bless you all and give you the strength to succeed in your defence. This is your year.
