The military commander confirmed that the national army has taken control of more than 90 percent of the Nihm district with the terrain that prevents the use of traditional combat tactics.

“The militia resorted to put more obstacles in the way of the national army progress, planted thousands of the anti-personnel mines, matched with the mountainous environment.These are the reasons that have prolonged the time of the battle in Nihm”.the military commander said.

During the past two days, the national army made further progress, managed to liberate Al-Safih Mount, after three days of fierce fighting. The militia fled towards the areas known as Al-Madfoon, where the army fought with it a chase there.

Progress has not been limited to Al-Safih Mount, but there has been progress not far from it in the mountainous region of Al-Kuhel where army has controlled much.
