Yemen’s government-aligned forces say they conduct air strikes against Houthi targets in Sanaa, the Houthi-held capital. A military spokesperson says the strikes target “vital” or “legitimate vital military” objectives, and government-affiliated media report hits on Houthi positions in areas including Al-Nahdain and Jabal Attan.
Some outlets also report activity beyond Sanaa. Middle East Eye says strikes are carried out not only in Sanaa but also in Saada, the Houthis’ stronghold. The reports rely largely on statements from Yemen’s armed forces and Houthi-aligned or government-linked media. Middle East Eye also cites Houthi-run Al Masirah TV reporting that the attack in Sanaa was carried out by Saudi Arabia, with no immediate Saudi confirmation.
Contextually, the conflict had largely slowed after a 2022 truce, but hostilities resume amid broader regional tensions, including Houthi actions in the Red Sea and subsequent Saudi and government air responses. Across sources, the main variation is the scope of locations mentioned and the attribution of responsibility for the Sanaa attack, while all describe targeted strikes against Houthi positions.
