Yemen's military liberated the whole Ceremonials Camp and broke into the main gate of the Republican Palace in the battle with Saleh-Houthi militias in Taiz on Friday, said the army spokesman Brig. Abduh Mojalli.
"Over the past few days, the army and popular resistance has managed to clear several strategic sites and locations that were under the militia's control, namely the Central Bank and Faculty of Medicine buildings in Taiz."
The battles, the spokesman said, are pressing ahead according to the plans set to liberate Taiz with all its installations and all the Yemeni territories. Taiz is has, for long, been under indiscriminate shelling by the Houthis, he said. But the militias are in moments of breakdown and pullbacks and runaways toward Al-Hawban.
The spokesman thanked the Saudi-led Arab coalition for the aerial cover they provide to the Yemeni army combatants on the ground.
