Army artillery units conducted focused bombardments on militia positions in the Al Fakher front, specifically targeting Houthi fortifications in the Al Kam Nabijat and Habail Al Samai areas. These strikes effectively neutralized several artillery positions. Additionally, in the Murais front, army units retaliated against Houthi fire after the militia shelled villages along the frontline with mortar rounds.
