Yemen’s internationally recognised government has begun a new wave of air strikes against Houthi‑controlled areas, marking its first large‑scale aerial offensive in months. The attacks follow reports that the Iran‑backed rebels are positioning forces near the strategic al‑Mandab Strait, a potential choke‑point for Red Sea shipping.
Civilians in conflict zones and regional trade routes face heightened risk as the government seeks to reclaim territory. The Jerusalem Post notes the fighting intensifies as both sides eye the strait.
Observers will watch for any escalation toward naval engagements or expanded coalition involvement.
