ISTANBUL (AA) – Yemen’s armed forces claimed Thursday that they had neutralized 324 Houthi fighters and commanders in 982 military operations over the past 24 hours as part of the ongoing Dawn of Yemen operation.
In a statement posted on US social media company X, military spokesman Col. Majid Abdullah al-Nuzaili said the operations involved warplanes, drones, field artillery and rocket launchers that are targeting Houthi reinforcements, command centers and supply routes.
The operations also destroyed or damaged 108 military vehicles and medium and heavy weapons, he added.
Al-Nuzaili said government forces continued operations against Houthi positions in the Taiz, Marib, Al-Jawf and Al-Bayda provinces, as well as on southern and southwestern fronts.
Fighting between Yemen’s government forces and the Houthis has intensified in recent weeks amid the Saudi-led coalition’s military campaign against the group.
The latest operations are part of the broader Dawn of Yemen operation, launched by government-aligned forces to dislodge Houthi forces from positions across several fronts.
