Yemen's internationally recognised government has launched Operation Dawn of Yemen, recapturing Houthi-held territory along the Red Sea coast near the Bab al-Mandeb strait. The Saudi-led coalition has deployed 100 fighter jets, while the Houthis claim attacks on Saudi territory. The offensive marks the war's biggest escalation since the 2022 UN truce, with battles unfolding on the western coast, Taiz and Marib fronts.
