Military spokesperson for the Saudi-backed Yemeni government forces, Majid Al-Nazili, said on Sunday that approximately 267 Houthi fighters have been either killed, wounded, or forced to flee the battlefield as part of its “Dawn of Yemen” operation.
Al-Nazili stated that combat aircraft conducted 19 airstrikes across the Marib, Taiz, and Tur al-Bahah fronts, while unmanned aerial vehicles carried out 29 targeted attacks.
He added that 944 artillery and rocket-launcher strikes were launched against Houthi gatherings, reinforcements, fortifications, and combat positions.
