The Bab Al-Mandeb file — one of the most important international navigation passages in the Middle East — returned on Sunday strongly to the forefront of the scene in Yemen, but this time with the completion of control over its first defensive barrier in the south of the country.Exclusive — Al-Khabar Al-Yemeni:During the recent hours, the Sana’a forces — after days of encircling the Saudi factions — managed to take control of the strategic Kahbub mountain range, which is considered the most important defensive line governing the point connecting the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden. So what does this mountain range represent?According to research centers, the Kahbub range extends for several kilometers, and is characterized by a relatively complex nature, and has towering peaks, the highest of which reaches about 700 meters, directly overlooking the narrow waterway in Bab Al-Mandeb, and is about 40 kilometers away from it only; meaning that it has become within the range of medium cannons and machine guns.As for these towering peaks, they not only overlook Mayun Island and Bab Al-Mandeb, but also expose the American and foreign bases on the other bank of the Red Sea and Al-Mandeb.This mountain range — located in Al-Mudaribah and Ras Al-Arah District, administratively affiliated with Lahj Governorate — was divided between the control of the Sana’a forces and a small part under the control of the Saudi-loyal factions that advanced via the coastal strip of the district toward south of Al-Mandeb, but the situation did not last long until the Yemeni forces managed to end the presence of the Saudi factions earlier today, according to what the reports indicate, in a complex operation.As for the forces controlling these peaks, they have imposed fire control over the north of Bab Al-Mandeb, specifically the cities of Dhubab and Al-Mokha, reaching Mayun Island in the center and the southern end that extends to the depth of the Gulf of Aden.It also kept all navigation movement between the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden within a stone’s throw of it, which means tightening its control over the navigation in the important vital strait.
