District for growth Al-Jouf district in the north-east of Yemen has become one of the main fronts in recent days. Therefore, the government forces, with the support of the Saudi aviation, are increasingly trying to attack in several directions at the same time, but the Houthis report that attacks are being repelled. Apparently, the anti-Houthi coalition wants to break through to the administrative center of al-Hazm, which lies in the lowlands between the desert mountain plateau and controls the route north to Saada and the border with Saudi Arabia. The capture of the city will give the coalition access to areas north of the Houthis in Sana'a and will allow the Houthis to limit their logistics along the area's main artery. However, so far the attack has been difficult. The government units are still ready-made formations without a clear command and with questionable motivation. In addition, they must advance across an open area attacked from the height. Even the Saudi aviation does not save the situation; Houthi command posts and warehouses are heavily damaged, but on the ground this does not translate into progress. The Houthis remain true to their strategy: they hold the heights, shoot back and mobilize the tribes against "Saudi aggression". Moreover, in the Al-Jouf Mountains, historically defense is cheaper than offense, and no one has ever been able to dislodge a fortified enemy from there by aviation alone. For the Saudis, an intensification in this direction is necessary to obtain a "ground trump card" before any future settlement. However, so far the result is actually in favor of the defense. Saudi - about the chaos in the Middle East with love support us.
