Yemen’s internationally recognized government military claims to have killed over a thousand Houthi fighters in nearly 2,000 targeted operations across the country as part of operation “Dawn of Yemen.” Colonel Majed Abdullah al-Nazili, the spokesman for Yemeni government forces, reported that ground troops continue their offensive and destroyed significant amounts of Houthi ammunition and vehicles. The conflict is escalating with an attack on Saudi Arabia’s Riyadh airport, prompting President Trump to consider military action against the Houthis. Meanwhile, the Iran-backed group warns international actors like Pakistan against involvement in support of Saudi Arabia.

Story summary
Yemeni government forces claimed they killed 1,150 Houthi fighters in nearly 2,000 targeted operations across Yemen over a 24-hour period as part of operation "Dawn of Yemen." Colonel Majed Abdullah al-Nazili, the spokesman for Yemeni government forces, also stated that army troops destroyed multiple Houthi ammunition dumps and at least 180 vehicles, including combat, transport, and supply vehicles. Al Jazeera could not independently verify these claims.
Meanwhile, an attack on King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia's capital, injured several people and led to flight cancellations. Despite this, U.S. President Donald Trump indicated uncertainty about whether the United States would join strikes against the Houthis following the airport attack. The conflict is intensifying with no mediation efforts currently underway, according to Baraa Shiban, a Yemen expert at the Royal United Services Institute in London.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political
question, so it has no leaning score. That is an
answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly
or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it
anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political
position.
