The Southern Transitional Council (STC), backed by the United Arab Emirates, has authorized the pro-STC Tariq Afash forces to take control of the city of Taizz, located in southwest Yemen. This decision comes as Taizz is currently under the control of Saudi-backed Coalition Forces.
The city is strategically surrounded on three sides by Ansarullah forces, which adds complexity to the ongoing conflict in the region. The STC"s move reflects the shifting dynamics in Yemen"s protracted civil war.
