Yemen's Government Says 133 Anti-Houthi Operations in 24 Hours

Yemen's internationally recognized government reported 133 operations against Houthi fighters across seven provinces before August 18, 2026. Army spokesperson Colonel Majed al-Nuzaili said they targeted Houthi capabilities and personnel. The surge follows a collapsed UN truce (a negotiated pause in fighting) and wider escalation linked to the US-Iran war. The claims could not be independently verified.
