Yemen's armed forces claim they carried out 71 attacks against Houthi positions across Taiz province, according to reporting by Al Jazeera cited by Middle East Eye.
The operations targeted gatherings, reinforcements and military buildups in ten named locations across the province. A Houthi military spokesperson said the attacks struck al-Aqrud, Samea, al-Ahkum, al-Akboush, Jabal Rasin, Jabal Jardad, Bani Omar, Bani Bakari, al-Kaawish and al-Athawir.
The Houthi spokesperson claimed the operations destroyed several transport and support vehicles belonging to the group and caused casualties among its fighters. The source material does not provide independent verification of these claims or specify the number of reported casualties.
Taiz province has been a contested area of Yemen's ongoing conflict between the internationally recognized government and Houthi forces. The cited reporting attributes the attack claims to Yemen's armed forces, with confirmation of the targets coming from a Houthi military spokesperson.
