Yemen’s Houthis said on Thursday that they carried out missile and drone attacks on “Saudi military deployments” in Yemen's Saudi-backed government controlled areas of Marib and Hadramout.
Houthi military spokesperson Yahya Saree accused Saudi Arabia of a “large military buildup” in Yemen and said that in response, “our armed forces conducted a large-scale and precise military operation targeting Saudi enemy troop concentrations,” which killed and wounded several soldiers.
“We advise those misled and deceived among our people to leave the Saudi enemy camps and return to their homes before it is too late,” Saree said in a statement on X. “We assure our dear Yemeni people in all governorates that the armed forces are fully prepared to confront any escalation.”
Medical sources said that at least 38 Saudi-backed Yemeni government troops were killed, AFP has reported.
