Critical Threats(@criticalthreats):NEW | Ongoing Houthi advances in Taiz Governorate demonstrate that the Yemeni government’s recent counteroffensives failed to sufficiently pull Houthi reserves in order to relieve pressure around Taiz Governorate and enable Yemeni government offensive operations in other areas of the country. Houthi forces have advanced north and eastward in Taiz Governorate since CTP-ISW's last data cutoff on October 6, seizing territory that encircles Yemeni government-aligned forces in Taiz City.
