Published 2 years ago
In support of the internationally-recognized Yemeni government forces, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) Air Force carried out 40 airstrikes in a span of 24 hours against Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen's Shabwa province, allowing the Yemeni forces to gain significant territory. The strikes took place on or around January 4th and 5th, 2022. The attached video shows some of the strikes, which demonstrate great precision.
The operation was meant to cut Houthi supply lines into Marib, where fighting has been ongoing for several months. Outside of Marib, the Houthi rebels are increasing cross-border attacks into Saudi Arabia with raiding parties and Iran-delivered suicide drones.
