Houthis launch missile attacks on al-Makha and Marib

The Houthis launched a wave of missile and drone attacks on Yemen’s Marib city and the Red Sea port of al-Makha overnight, killing four people and injuring eight.

Axar.az reports, citing Al-Jazeera, that an attack on Sunday struck the outskirts of al-Makha, while another hit a main road in the port city.

Marib’s government media office said six ballistic missiles and four drones targeted residential neighborhoods on Saturday evening, injuring four people and damaging homes and civilian infrastructure.

Port operations at al-Makha had already been suspended following several days of attacks, the director general of the government-controlled facility, Abdulmalik al-Sharabi, said.

The Yemeni military said it carried out 181 operations against Houthi positions across several provinces on Saturday and Sunday, killing and wounding dozens of Houthi fighters.

The Houthis said four of their members were killed but did not provide further details.
