    Al-Yatama is under the control of the Yemeni army and the Popular Committees. 

Sources on the ground confirmed to Al Mayadeen Saturday that the army and the Popular Committees in Yemen have seized the Al-Yatama area, the administrative center of the Khub Washaaf district which shares borders with Najran, Saudi Arabia. 

The sources said that the army and the committees took control of the international highway in the Al-Yatama area which leads to the Al-Khadra border crossing between Najran, Saudi Arabia, and Saada, Yemen. 

The Yemen army and the Popular Committees were previously able to control large parts of Al-Yamata's region and markets, west of the vast district of Khub Washaaf and the major districts of Al-Jawf. 

On Friday, the Saudi coalition targeted a residential building in Al-Mahwit governorate with three airstrikes, constituting the coalition's latest massacre which killed and injured over 10 victims. 

A spokesman for Ansar Allah, Muhammad Abdul Salam, contended that under the complicity of the United Nations and with the silence of the international community, Saudi Arabia continues its aggression against civilians as it commits a multitude of crimes, including its latest in Al-Mahwit province.
