Arab Coalition Kills 90 Houthis in Yemen

Arab Coalition announced on Saturday that 90 Houthi militias were killed and 20 military vehicles were destroyed in Yemen.

In a statement, the coalition added that it had carried out 36 operations, targeting Houthis in Marib and Al Bayda’ villages in the past 24 hours.

Last February, the Houthis began a major push to seize Marib and have renewed their offensive since September, France 24 reported.

In 2014, the Yemeni civil war began when the Houthis seized the capital Sanaa, 120 kilometres west of Marib, prompting Saudi-led forces to intervene to prop up the government the following year.

 

Tens of thousands of people have died and millions have been displaced in what the United Nations has called the world’s worst humanitarian crisis.
