Military escalation continues in Yemen on several fronts, with clashes erupting between government forces and the Houthi group on the Al-Aqroud front south of Taiz, and government forces announcing drone strikes targeting the group's positions, gatherings, and vehicles on the Marib and Al-Jawf fronts. In the context of aerial operations, the official spokesman for the coalition forces announced the execution of what he described as a qualitative operation, which he said targeted neutralizing sources of threat in Houthi-controlled areas. He explained that the operation resulted in the destruction of five tunnels for storing ballistic missiles, four launch platforms, a missile warehouse, and other military targets. The Coalition to Support Legitimacy in Yemen also announced the destruction of two ballistic missile launch platforms in Sanaa, noting that one of them was used to launch a ballistic missile towards Riyadh. In another statement, the coalition reported intercepting and destroying a ballistic missile launched by the Houthis towards the Saudi capital, a day after announcing the interception and destruction of 12 missiles launched towards the kingdom. In response, the Houthi military spokesman, Yahya Saree, announced the execution of two operations using ballistic missiles, targeting, according to him, military gatherings and weapons warehouses in the Salah al-Din area of Aden Governorate, and the Al-Waht area of Lahj Governorate. He also announced targeting King Khalid International Airport.
