Yemen's Sanaa Offensive Collapses, Houthis Seize West Coast

Yemen's planned offensive to retake Sanaa from the Houthis collapsed, with more than 15 brigades defeated. The entire west coast fell to Houthi forces as up to 30,000 well-equipped fighters retreated. Government forces recognized by the UN are regrouping to try to seize the Kahbob mountains and block Houthi advances toward the Bab al-Mandab strait.
