Yemen Forces Launch Massive Offensive Against Houthis, Claim 723 Strikes & Hundreds Of Casualties

Sanaa, Nov 15: Yemen's government forces and the Houthi group engaged in fresh attacks across several fronts, each side claiming heavy casualties. The Yemeni government reported 723 attacks on Houthi positions, including 37 airstrikes, 56 drone attacks, and numerous rocket and artillery strikes, killing or wounding 321 fighters and commanders, and destroying or disabling 117 military vehicles and equipment.

The Houthi spokesperson, however, claimed their group fired ballistic missiles at Saudi troop gatherings in southern Yemen, killing or wounding dozens and destroying military vehicles. Houthi military spokesperson Yahya Sarea also accused Saudi warplanes of conducting 72 airstrikes against civilian sites in four Yemeni provinces over the last 24 hours.

Despite these claims, their veracity remains unverified. On the same day, coalition spokesman Turki Al-Maliki reported that coalition forces had intercepted and destroyed two drones launched by the Houthis towards Riyadh and southern Saudi Arabia.
