Yemeni government forces report significant military gains in Marib province, where they claim to have pushed back Houthi fighters and neutralized hundreds of militants in a single day. The offensive follows weeks of intense clashes as the government seeks to regain control of key territory. The announcement comes amid escalating tensions in the region, where the Houthis remain a dominant armed group despite losing ground in recent weeks. Details on the broader strategic impact of the advances remain unclear, but the claims signal a potential shift in the conflict’s momentum.


Attack comes as Yemeni gov't forces claim advances in Marib and say they 'neutralised' 430 Houthi fighters in 24 hours.
