The Saudi-led coalition said it destroyed 82 targets in a “comprehensive operation” across Saada, Hodeidah, al-Jawf and Marib, according to spokesperson Major-General Turki al-Maliki.

According to him, the targets included 11 mountain-based ballistic missile storage sites in Saada, as well as command and control centres, communications systems, missile and weapons depots. Houthi military spokesman Yahya Saree said the Ansar Allah movement launched ballistic missile strikes on coalition positions south of the Bab el-Mandeb Strait.
