After two days of preparing an assault and staging reserves and equipment, a Junta force of around 950 men moved to take the pro-al Zaydi held city of Nezbah. Just after the {{wp|Adhan}}, on September 9th Junta forces advanced towards key positions in the city, prepared to take on the ~200 pro-al Zaydi militia known to be holding the city core. The initial clashes were fierce and chaotic, with the distinct sounds of gunfire and explosions reverberating through Nezbah's dense urban landscape. The city's residents, caught in the crossfire, sought shelter as the confrontation escalated rapidly throughout the morning. Junta and pro-al Zaydi forces engaged in close-quarters combat, maneuvering through the ancient, labyrinthine streets of the madina, exchanging volleys of gunfire and launching sporadic attacks on each other's positions. Light armored vehicles in support of the Junta forces roamed the city's periphery, adding a mechanized dimension to the unfolding conflict. Junta forces, being the more disciplined, better training, and equipped, quickly establish a stronghold in the western neighborhoods. The pro-al Zaydi militants, utilized their knowledge of the city's intricate layout to their advantage, making the Junta forces pay in blood for each block they captured. By midday, the battle lines had been drawn and pockets of intense combat persisted across the city. Sniper fire echoed from rooftops, and the acrid scent of smoke hung in the air as buildings smoldered from the aftermath of explosions. As the sun dipped below the horizon, the first day of the Battle of Nezbah drew to a close, leaving the city in a state of turmoil and uncertainty, with neither faction gaining a decisive advantage.

As the first light of September 10th P
Junta and pro-al Zaydi forces continued their relentless clashes. Tipped off by a network of local informants and social media monitoring, the [[Burgoignesc Foreign Legion]], recognizing the strategic importance of Nezbah, initiated an aerial reconnaissance mission. Deploying drone units equipped with advanced surveillance technology, the [[Burgoignesc Foreign Legion|Legion]] sought to gain a comprehensive understanding of the ongoing conflict and identify opportunities for strategic intervention. From a remote command center, [[Burgoignesc Foreign Legion|Legion]] commanders monitored real-time feeds from the drones, via the [[HERMES Collaborative Combat Network]], as they soared over Nezbah. The footage exposed the movements and positions of both Junta and pro-al Zaydi forces and the data collected became the foundation for a meticulous pincer attack strategy. Throughout the morning, the [[Burgoignesc Foreign Legion|Legion]]'s reconnaissance units analyzed the information, identifying key junctures and vulnerabilities within the city. Specialized teams worked to develop a plan that would capitalize on the observed weaknesses of both factions, the Junta forces were spread very thin and they were far from the armor that they had brought. This signified that their communication was likely poor and therefore their reaction time was low. For the pro-al Zaydi militias they seemed to be focusing their efforts on running and gunning, refusing to concentrate their troops. This presumed that their militiamen must be exhausted. By 1500, the [[Burgoignesc Foreign Legion|Legion]]'s pincer attack plan had taken shape. Two mechanized infantry companies, supported by armored vehicles, would target the Junta forces's armor and their soldiers entrenched in the city's western neighborhoods. Simultaneously, a cavalry scout company, equipped with {{wp|Panhard CRAB}} armored cars and {{wp|M1117 Armored Security Vehicle}}s, would direct its assault towards pro-al Zaydi positions in the central part of Nezbah. That night the units prepared their equipment and did last minute checks on the vehicles before setting off just after midnight.
