Yemen carried out 20 strikes on Houthi targets in Taiz province, spokesperson says
The strikes targeted Houthi positions and movements and were said to hit fighters and military vehicles, as fighting widened across Taiz.
- On Friday, Yemeni Armed Forces spokesperson Majed Abdullah al-Nuzaili reported that warplanes conducted 20 strikes against Houthi targets in Taiz province over three hours.
- Fighting intensified across Taiz, prompting authorities to order closure of 19 roads, including the main route from Sanaa to Taiz, designating them as military operational areas.
- Targets included Houthi movements and military vehicles in Humair, Bani Bakari, Sama, al-Aqrud, Sixtieth Street, al-Aamour, Maidi Bani Hassan, and al-Wazi'iyah, with strikes scoring direct hits.
- Saudi Arabia claims Houthis recently attacked a Medina power station and attempted to target Mecca, though the Houthi-run Saba news agency denied the airstrikes.
- Control over Taiz would grant the Houthis dominance over Yemen's north, tighten their grip on the Red Sea coast, and provide easier access to the government seat in Aden.
