A fresh coalition offensive in Yemen has targeted key Houthi military infrastructure, destroying five missile tunnels, four launchers and a weapons storage site. The strikes come amid repeated Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia, intensifying security concerns over ballistic missile threats, armed drones and the safety of civilians and critical infrastructure. The operation is aimed at degrading the Houthis’ weapons capabilities, disrupting supply lines to frontline fighters and limiting their ability to launch further attacks. The destruction of missile facilities, launch systems and weapons caches marks another escalation in efforts to counter Houthi military operations and protect Saudi territory. WATCH
