Houthi forces launch missile strikes against Marib
Forces aligned with the Houthi movement have reportedly launched a missile attack on the city of Marib. This follows ongoing military operations by the internationally recognized Yemeni government in the region.
The internationally recognized government of Yemen has reported that Houthi forces targeted the city of Marib with multiple missiles. Marib, located approximately 120 kilometers east of the capital, Sanaa, remains a central point of contention in the ongoing Yemeni conflict.
Government forces, supported by allied fighters, have been conducting an offensive in the area. While the government military has confirmed the missile strikes, there has been no immediate statement from Houthi leadership regarding the specific tactical objectives or the outcome of these reported attacks. The region has long been a strategic focal point due to its resources and its status as a government stronghold in north-central Yemen. The situation remains fluid as both sides continue to engage in military maneuvers in the surrounding territory.
