Houthis claim downing of Saudi F-15
The Houthis' downing of a Saudi F-15 fighter jet in Marib Province comes amid a major military escalation, as the Yemeni army, supported by the group, carried out more than 450 airstrikes on Saudi targets across several provinces. They also shot down an F-15 using a locally-made missile, with confirmation of Yemen's continued defense of its air sovereignty. Meanwhile, American communications revealed warnings to the Houthis through security channels in Washington, denying any negotiations or direct diplomatic relations. This occurs alongside an escalation in military activity and the Yemeni government’s preparations to regain the initiative on the ground. The escalation indicates that the Houthis are attempting to strengthen their positions and achieve strategic gains, while Yemeni and international forces continue supporting the legitimate government in confronting the Iran-backed group.
