Yemeni Forces Control Historical Fortress

In the name of God, the Most Compassionate,

Most Merciful, dated October 31 2026.

I now stand before the gate of the historic,

impregnable Al- Maqatira Castle, which resisted

the British invader and colonizer and the Ottoman occupier. It and

its people, free men, men,

and honorable people played national

roles in confronting the forces of

colonialism, arrogance, and hegemony throughout history.

Of course, thanks to God Almighty and the sacrifices of the fighters,

Al- Maqatira Castle has come fully

under the control of the Yemeni armed

forces, along with securing and regaining

control over all the areas and sites that were under the control of

Saudi enemy mobilizations in Al-Hukoom.

We can also now hear the sound of clashes

and fierce advances toward Souq Al- Rubu',

where the Yemeni armed forces are at this moment pursuing

and chasing the Saudi enemy mobilizations it is gathering from all

governorates in an attempt to target security, stability,

and destabilize the situation in Taiz Governorate,

but the Yemeni armed forces

Resistance to these reinforcements continues,

inflicting heavy losses on them in equipment

and lives. Just moments ago, the Saudi enemy carried out intense airstrikes,

targeting homes, of course, and the Hayjat al-Abd Road.

Today, at these very moments, we have reached the front of

Al-Maqatirah Castle's gate. Time is pressing us, and the clouds are

spreading and gathering densely,

making visibility virtually nonexistent in these areas. It is no longer

possible for filming to show these areas up close.

Therefore, from Al-Maqatirah Castle, we send a message to the Saudi enemy

and its reinforcements: this castle will remain

impregnable to you, and Taiz will remain impregnable.

Its free and honorable sons

will remain at the forefront to cleanse their governorate

and cleanse the Yemeni Republic of your reinforcements

and the enemy's reinforcements, the Saudi enemy's reinforcements.

We affirm that Taiz has raised from this castle the slogan:

The world will never see a master on

my land, and the Saudi enemy will see from Taiz and its people

nothing but red death, God willing. God is greatest.

Death to America, death to Israel, curse upon the Jews,

Victory to Islam. Of course, on the way back from the summit of

al-Maqatirah Castle,

What distinguishes al- Maqatirah

Castle is that whenever you climb higher,

the denser the clouds become and the visibility

becomes nonexistent, to the point where you can no longer

see in front of you.

I am now walking along the only route, which is on foot,

leading to al-Maqatirah Castle,

perhaps

these towering mountains, and that is the watercourse

that connects

Hayjat al-Abd, Taiz, toward Aden,

and no road connects al-Maqatirah Castle except this road

that I am walking on now.
