Yemeni forces strike Saudi-backed military sites in Yemen

Yemeni military forces have launched a series of coordinated missile and drone strikes against Saudi-backed military positions in Yemen. According to military spokesperson Yahya Saree, the operations targeted troop mobilizations, weapons depots, and command centers in the Al-Mocha district, as well as sites in Marib and Hadramaut.

The strikes in Al-Mocha reportedly caused extensive damage to military equipment and resulted in dozens of casualties among Saudi-aligned forces. Officials claim the operations demonstrated advanced intelligence capabilities, allowing for precise targeting of logistics and supply routes.

Analysts suggest these escalating attacks serve as a preemptive move to disrupt potential Saudi military escalations and exert political pressure following the relative calm of the 2022 agreement. Yemeni officials have stated they intend to continue striking reinforcements to prevent the lifting of the siege on Yemen.
