Tensions in Yemen have risen sharply as government forces recaptured positions near Taiz, according to a military general. The conflict between Houthi rebels and government troops has displaced thousands, with Taiz becoming a major center of displacement. Reports indicate that over 129,000 people have fled their homes due to the escalating violence.
The Houthi group has accused Saudi Arabia of launching 28 attacks in the past 24 hours, targeting the western provinces of Taiz, Al Jawf, and Marib. These attacks, carried out using F-15 and Typhoon jets based in Saudi airbases, have intensified the fighting in the region. In response, Tehran has warned of potential US-led strikes and hinted at retaliation without limits.
Meanwhile, the humanitarian crisis deepens, with civilians caught in the crossfire. The situation remains volatile, with both sides accusing each other of escalating hostilities. International calls for de-escalation have grown, but the conflict shows no signs of slowing.
The conflict continues to claim lives and displace families, with no immediate end in sight.
