Yemeni armed forces say four Iranian experts killed in Taiz

Yemen's armed forces announced that four Iranian drone and missile experts were killed during 756 strikes on Houthi targets in Taiz. These strikes, conducted over a span of 72 hours, targeted both Houthi personnel and military assets across multiple fronts, resulting in a total of over 2,300 casualties. Colonel Majed Al-Nazili, the armed forces' spokesperson, reported that the operations were carried out using a variety of assets, including air force resources, drones, snipers, artillery, and rocket launchers.

Targeted areas included Kitaf, Al-Buq'a, Alab axis, Al-Jawf, Marib, Al-Bayda, Lahj, and Taiz. The strikes led to the destruction or disablement of several troop carriers, vehicles, military reinforcements, missile launch platforms, weapons depots, and military equipment. Al-Nazili emphasized that these operations also resulted in the killing and wounding of 2,316 Houthi fighters.

He claimed that the deaths of the Iranian experts provided further proof of Iran's ongoing support and expertise for the Houthis. Al-Nazili criticized the Houthis for falsely attributing attacks on civilians and civilian sites to government forces, accusing them of covering up their own violations against civilians and public facilities.

Additionally, the armed forces reported the attack on the Amr bin Al-Aas School in Lahj province on September 23, resulting in three civilian deaths, four injuries, and damage to the school and its facilities. Al-Nazili also accused the Houthis of planting banned landmines in Lahj, posing a significant danger to civilians and local movement.

He reaffirmed the armed forces' commitment to international humanitarian law, protection of civilians and property, and the restoration of security, stability, and the rule of law.
