Signs of fierce fighting covered Taiz on Sunday where clashes broke out between pro-government fighters and Houthi rebels.
These men are fighting for President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi.
This man says he hopes they will push the Houthis back to their stronghold in Saada.
The Iran-backed Houthis forced out Hadi earlier this year, prompting the Saudis to step in.
Air strikes and street fighting have since devastated the city, with residents feeling the pain.
