The Yemeni government forces say they have carried out 2,309 “targeting operations” against the Houthis, as part of their military campaign to recapture Houthi-held territory across Yemen, Al Jazeera reports.

The operations were conducted by the government forces using combat aircraft, drones, artillery and rocket launchers, and destroyed 460 Houthi military vehicles, according to claims made by the forces’ spokesperson, Majeed al-Nuzaili.

Al-Nuzaili said air strikes in Taiz continue to thwart the Houthis’ efforts to “compensate for losses and reorganise their forces”.
