Yemen faces intense clashes as government advances
Yemen has witnessed a rapid escalation of military clashes on multiple fronts, as government forces and their allies managed to retake positions in Taiz, Hodeidah, Al Bayda, and Al Jawf, advancing towards strategic areas like Al Jrahi. Military operations continue on several axes. This follows a broad attack launched by the Houthis targeting areas near the Red Sea coast and the Bab al-Mandab Strait, utilizing missiles and drones. In response, government forces conducted airstrikes, which previously handled most of the air campaigns. The conflict has resulted in the deaths of over 120 fighters from both sides, as well as civilian displacement. The Houthis have also increased their hostility toward Saudi Arabia, accusing it of conducting strikes inside Yemen, especially near the port of Mokha and the Bab al-Mandab Strait, a vital route for trade and energy. The United Nations warns that the expansion of the fighting threatens to plunge Yemen into a full-scale war again, particularly as clashes draw nearer to the Bab al-Mandab Strait, which holds global strategic and commercial significance.
