Multiple ylabels for tiledlayout

Suppose I am drawing a 4*6 figure with tiledlayout. Now I want to let the first and the second rows of figures share the same ylabel, and so do the third and the fourth rows. I looked for solutions but found nothing useful. I tried to create two different tiledlayout on one figure, but it turns out that tiledlayout function does not allow this. Thus, is there any suggestions?

One approach would be to create a 2x1 tiledlayout where inside each tile you nest another tiledlayout of dimension 2x6. You can facilitate this by downloading nestedLayouts() from the File Exchange,
Example:
[ax,t,T]=nestedLayouts([2,1],[2,6]);
for i=1:numel(ax) %populate all 24 axes with plot data
plot(ax(i),rand(1,5));
end
for i=1:numel(t) %Give each outer tile its own ylabel
ylabel(t(i),"ylabel No. "+i);
end
