Airstrikes hit Houthi camp in Yarim as fighting intensifies in Taiz
Yemen sees military escalation with fierce clashes in Al-Wazi'iyah, Hayfan, and western Taiz, alongside airstrikes targeting a Houthi camp in Yarim.
Military operations intensified on Thursday, with airstrikes striking Houthi positions in Hodeidah, Al-Bayda, Ibb, and Sanaa. Government forces continued their advances across multiple fronts as part of the "Dawn of Yemen" operation to reclaim Houthi-held areas. Airstrikes hit militia barracks near Hodeidah Airport, while forces targeted Houthi positions in Al-Bayda's Makiras mountains.
In Ibb, a Houthi camp in Yareem was destroyed, and another in Sanaa province's Bani Matar was also hit. These strikes followed announcements of attacks on Houthi sites, weapons depots, and military vehicles in Marib and Al-Jawf, alongside ongoing operations along Yemen's western coast and in Taiz. The Yemeni Armed Forces reported conducting 2,103 strikes against Houthi targets since the operation began, neutralizing 1,860 members and destroying numerous equipment and sites.
On the Bab Al-Mandab front, government forces secured the Kahboub mountainous region overlooking the strait, marking another Houthi advance. In Taiz, control of Mokha city was claimed from Houthi forces, along with gains in other areas of the province and southern mountain regions, while airstrikes continued on militia positions.
