Heavy fighting continues to rage across the regions of Taiz, Marib, and al-Jawf in Yemen, according to Al Jazeera. The conflict erupts between government forces backed by Saudi Arabia and Houthi fighters, with both sides engaging in artillery and missile exchanges. Warplanes have been conducting intensive air strikes on Houthi positions and weapons in western Taiz, while government forces successfully repelled a Houthi assault in Bani Bakari on the al-Ashrouh front in Jabal Habashi district, west of Taiz.
As the intensity of the fighting escalates in southern and western Yemen, authorities have raised the alert level and deployed additional security personnel. The west coast has borne the brunt of the violence, with a surge in displacement as both the government and international humanitarian organizations struggle to reach the areas affected by the conflict.
The escalation has also resulted in an increased use of drones, with Yemeni government forces reportedly shooting down several, including those carrying mortar rounds.
