Yemeni government’s military says its forces advancing against Houthis
Saudi-backed forces say 1,150 Houthis killed in operations against the Iran-aligned group over the past 24 hours.
Yemen's armed forces reported conducting over 1,900 strikes in a single day, successfully neutralizing 1,150 fighters from the Houthi militia and destroying or disabling over 180 vehicles, according to initial field estimates. Colonel Majed Al-Nazili, a spokesperson for the Yemeni armed forces, announced that these operations were carried out across the eastern, western, and southwestern fronts, targeting weapons and ammunition depots, fortifications, military camps, and supply sites.
The strikes specifically aimed at key positions held by the Houthi group, as well as legitimate high-value military targets deep within Houthi-held areas. Simultaneously, ground troops of Yemen's armed forces continued advancing, recapturing strategic positions and consolidating recent gains. Al-Nazili stated that these operations had significantly weakened the Houthis' ability to maneuver, provide support, and continue their combat activities.
These developments are part of Operation "Dawn of Yemen," with military operations ongoing on multiple fronts, as per the armed forces spokesperson's statement.
