Prime Minister Ahmed Obeid bin-Daghr made a phone call to the Chief of Staff Maj. General Mohammed A. al-Maqdashi in which they discussed the streak of gains the military has achieved in Marib and Nehm of late.
The Premier was acquainted about the latest developments in Nehm district, a gateway to the militia-held capital city, Sana'a.
Bin-Daghr applauded the military's championships that come in the battlefield with sacrifices in blood and souls toward the noble aim of restoring the state back from hijackers- the Saleh-Houthi militia.
The premier instructed the Chief of Staff to ensure a deployment of forces along the desert highway of Al-Abr-Sayoon-Marib to clamp down on high-way robbery, a crime that increased of late. Robbers lurk for passengers to rob them of their possessions.
The premier has also issued a direction to the Ministry of Public Works to renovate the said highway which has fallen into a state of disrepair due to the fact that6 it's been lacking maintenance for long.
