Yemen’s National Army forces announced seizing a large and wide-ranging collection of sophisticated mines and weapons ready for use, as well as all Iranian-made wireless communication devices on the country’s western coastline. Artillery was seized on a number of key fronts abandoned by Houthi militants who were planning to use the weapons against the Yemeni people, the statement said.  Army intelligence operations also uncovered cash hideouts that insurgents used to conceal cash in the Saada governorate. Military experts say that locating high-level Houthi hideouts serves a blow to Houthi militias, especially at a time they are experiencing decline on all fronts and a lack of military supplies. The national army was able to seize Iranian-made weapons on various fronts, especially in west coast pockets, Yemeni Army Spokesman Brigadier Abdo Abdullah Majali told Asharq Al-Awsat in a phone conversation. Majali said that banknotes found in Saada are related to looting carried out by Houthi militias that robbed Yemen’s Central Bank and other banking institutions. He added that militants moved towards hiding the cash away from Sanaa so that it is easier to control the acquired funds. Majali also revealed that army forces mapped mines and uncovered attack blueprints targeting areas liberated by anti-coup forces.   “The army benefited greatly from maps in finding mines,” he added.  Majali explained that blueprints found aided in the rapid combing of different directorates. National Army units gaining access to important military information has helped in recent days to progress quickly and at a large scale. Finding the wireless device also aided the National Army in decoding, intercepting and wiretapping many calls exchanged between Houthi militia leaders. On the battlefield, the army spokesman confirmed that there has been significant progress in the governorate of Saada.  The area has been fully controlled, said Majali.
