The Yemeni army and Popular Committees, backed by fighters from Ma’rib province, have fully liberated al-Jubah district, south of the province.
The sources affirmed that the control of the district came after clashes with the Saudi-led coalition militants for more than a month.
Deputy Foreign Minister in the National Salvation Government in Sana’a, Hussein al-Ezzi, said on Tuesday afternoon that “al-Jubah is the last district of Ma’rib to embrace Sana’a after a long absence.”
