Yemen’s Armed Forces carried out 181 military operations targeting Houthi military positions over the past 24 hours, according to Armed Forces spokesperson Col. Majed Al-Nazili in a statement issued Sunday.

Al-Nazili said the operations resulted in dozens of Houthi fighters being killed or wounded and caused damage to military equipment and vehicles.

He said the operations targeted military positions, sources of fire and other capabilities allegedly being used to carry out hostile activities along the front lines.

Al-Nazili said the Yemeni Armed Forces remain capable of identifying and neutralising threats based on operational requirements and decisions made by the military leadership.

He added that the units involved carried out the operations with what he described as a high level of efficiency and discipline, while complying with international humanitarian law and taking measures to minimise risks to civilians.

The Armed Forces also urged civilians to stay away from military sites, facilities and areas where Houthi fighters are gathered.

Al-Nazili said the Yemeni Armed Forces were prepared to take the initiative and alter the balance on the battlefield.
