Yemen conflict escalates amid airstrikes and maritime activity
Conflict in Yemen has escalated with intensified airstrikes and ground maneuvers. In Sanaa, the Ministry of Health reported damage to the Al-Sabeen Hospital for Motherhood and Childhood following airstrikes. Despite the tension, the Sanaa Ministry of Transport stated that international maritime traffic remains functional, noting that 1,151 commercial vessels passed through the Bab al-Mandab strait in September.
In the Al-Jawf region, Yemeni forces reported engaging Saudi military mobilizations, resulting in casualties and destroyed equipment. Meanwhile, in Taiz, tribal leaders and local officials held meetings to express support for Sanaa-aligned forces in efforts to secure the province and its roads.
Reports indicate a significant increase in aerial activity, with Yemeni sources claiming Saudi forces conducted dozens of strikes across multiple provinces, including Sanaa, Saada, Taiz, and Hajjah.
