Houthis Say Hit Saudi Base After Renewed Fighting with Yemeni Govt Forces

Yahya Saree said the strike hit weapons depots and command centers, while the UN migration agency said 76,000 people have fled the fighting since July.

  • Houthi military spokesman Yahya Saree announced Yemeni forces launched ballistic missiles and drones at a military base in Sharurah, Saudi Arabia, targeting "weapons depots and command and control centres that are managing the aggression against our nation and people."
  • Following the Houthi capture of Yemen's Red Sea coast last Thursday, the United Nations migration agency reported 76,000 people have fled the fighting since July, a figure that quadrupled since last week.
  • The Houthis claimed "Saudi enemy aircraft conducted 129 airstrikes" on their controlled areas over 48 hours, while the Yemeni military reported targeting Houthi barracks in the Taiz region with three airstrikes on Sunday.
  • President Donald Trump rejected requests from Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman for United States intervention against the Houthis last week, later telling reporters "everything's gonna work out fine and dandy."
  • As the Houthis continue their maritime blockade of Red Sea ports, about 1,400 people have fled to Djibouti and the renewed conflict has killed more than 500 people, according to local sources.
