Yemen Clashes Kill Dozens as Houthis Advance Towards Red Sea
Intense clashes between Yemeni government forces and Houthi rebels in Taiz province have resulted in significant casualties, with reports indicating between 25 and 100 deaths. The fighting, which intensified recently, involves ballistic missile attacks and drone strikes. Government forces have reportedly sent reinforcements to Taiz from Aden, on Saudi orders, and claimed to have recaptured key territory. The conflict has also triggered a new wave of displacement, with thousands forced to flee their homes, and threatens vital roadways to the Red Sea coast. The Houthis are reportedly pushing towards territory bordering a strategic chokepoint in the Red Sea.
