notes: AS militias launched an opportunistic surprise attack against Dhusamareb in the afternoon of 18/12 and managed to briefly occupy the eastern and southern part of the town. ASWJ sent reinforcements from Guri-Ceel and managed to regain full control of the town in the evening. At least five combatants were killed and six others wounded. AS forces remained in very close proximity to the town on 19/12 to retrieve a damaged technical that had been abandoned just out of Dhusamareb after the offensive.
