Yemen's Information Minister said the government-held province of Marib is invincible and Houthis who are waging a protracted war against will not be able to enter "but as arrestees."

In a statement to Saba, Mummar al-Eryani said, "The Houthi militia are again deploying thousands of their militants including misguided tribesmen and children recruited from the summer radicalization centers … to a suicide mission in all fronts of Marib."

"The Houthi militia never indifferent to their human losses since they can mobilize more and more of tribesmen and children," he said.

Al-Eryani said the Iranian military officer "Hassan Eyrli and other Iranian and Hezbollah experts are managing the battles [against the government-held cities] from operation rooms in the hijacked capital Sana'a."

Al-Eryani appealed to the parents in the Houthi areas of control to watch out for their children whom Houthis are using as a tool to implement the Persian expansionist attempts.
