Yemeni government forces reported taking Jabal al-Manarah in Al-Misrakh district, Taiz, on Friday, Asharq’s correspondent reports. Barran Press reports an army and Popular Resistance raid against Houthi positions including the mountain, in the context of continuing Houthi advances and fighting around Taiz. Al-Hudhud, quoting Taiz military media, places the operation on Thursday night. These accounts are recorded as one reported capture, without asserting current control or a second recapture.

The capture is attributed to government forces and has no independent confirmation. The interval preserves the Thursday-night/Friday discrepancy; the district point is not the mountain’s coordinates.
