Houthis say Saudi Arabia launched over 50 strikes in 24 hours
The Saudi strikes came after the Iran-backed group claimed a rare drone and missile attack on a military base in the kingdom.
Yemen's Houthi rebels have accused Saudi Arabia of launching over 50 strikes against their positions in a 24-hour period, following the group's successful capture of the Red Sea coast. The ongoing conflict has resulted in over 100 strikes on Houthi positions since Tuesday, though Saudi Arabia has not officially confirmed these reports.
The renewed fighting has displaced nearly 86,000 people, with many fleeing the country. The conflict started in July when the Houthi group declared a maritime blockade on Saudi Arabia and targeted its ships in the Red Sea.
