  "summary": "Houthi fighters in Yemen have claimed they used drones and missiles to attack a military base in southern Saudi Arabia. According to Houthi military spokesman Yahya Saree, the attack targeted weapons depots and command and control centres at the Sharurah base, which manages what the Houthis describe as \"aggression against our nation and people\". The date of the operation was not specified.\n\nClashes have increased between the Iran-allied Houthis and Yemeni government forces, which are backed by Riyadh. The Yemeni military reported launching air strikes on Houthi positions in the Taiz region and in the Red Sea city of Mocha.\n\nThe ongoing clashes follow a Houthi offensive that resulted in the group capturing the remainder of Yemen's Red Sea coast and several strategic islands, according to the South China Morning Post. The United Nations reports that nearly 46,000 people have been displaced in Yemen since fighting escalated earlier last week.",
