The Yemeni Armed Forces announced a significant military escalation against the Houthi terrorist militia, reporting 1,731 targeting operations on October 28 and 29. These operations resulted in the neutralization of 563 militia leaders and members, and the destruction or disabling of 225 military vehicles and equipment, as part of the ongoing "Dawn of Yemen" operation across multiple battlefronts.
According to a report published by Sheba Intelligence, a website specializing in Yemeni affairs, the cumulative number of targeting operations announced by government forces since the start of the operation on October 4 has risen to at least 31,870, while the number of Houthi terrorist militia members and leaders neutralized has exceeded 17,663.
Government forces continue their military operations against militia fortifications, command centers, reinforcements and supply lines, as part of a campaign aimed at weakening their fighting capabilities and preventing their members from reorganizing their ranks, amid ongoing clashes in Taiz, Marib, Al-Jawf, Al-Bayda and the southern and western fronts of Yemen.
1,731 Operations in Two Days
Military data revealed that the Yemeni Armed Forces carried out 982 targeting operations on October 29, using fighter jets, drones, field artillery, and rocket launchers. These operations targeted Houthi militia reinforcements, advanced command and control centers, sniper positions, firing emplacements, and supply routes.
These operations resulted in the neutralization of 324 militia members and commanders, in addition to the destruction or disabling of 108 military vehicles and pieces of medium and heavy weaponry.
This followed 749 targeting operations on October 28, which resulted in the neutralization of 239 Houthi members and the destruction or disabling of 117 military vehicles and equipment, bringing the total number of operations in 48 hours to 1,731.
31,000 Targeting Operations
A report by Sheba Intelligence revealed that the number of announced military operations has exceeded 31,000 since the start of Operation Dawn of Yemen. This figure reflects the intensity and breadth of the military campaign across several fronts.
The strikes target command and control sites, defensive fortifications, troop concentrations, and military reinforcements belonging to the Houthi terrorist militia, as well as weapons depots and logistical movements, with the aim of reducing their ability to manage combat operations and regroup their forces.
More than 17,600 Houthis Killed
The cumulative tally compiled by Sheba Intelligence from military data shows that the number of Houthi terrorist militia members and leaders who have been declared neutralized since the start of the operation has risen to more than 17,663.
These figures indicate the scale of the human losses inflicted on the militia by the Yemeni army in less than a month, coinciding with the continued targeting of their military vehicles, defensive positions, and supply networks.
Taiz at the Heart of the Clashes
Government forces, supported by Popular Resistance units, continue their military operations on the Taiz front, targeting reinforcements and attempts by the Houthi terrorist militia to regroup.
According to military statements, government forces maintained their positions and repelled attempts by militia elements to advance, supported by airstrikes and artillery fire.
Operations have extended to the Marib, Al-Jawf, and Al-Bayda fronts, in addition to the southern and southwestern fronts, with continued targeting of fortifications, military gatherings, weapons depots, and supply movements, alongside efforts to clear mines and improvised explosive devices.
Continued Military Pressure
These developments come within the framework of Operation "Dawn of Yemen," launched on October 4th, as part of a military campaign aimed at restoring state authority over areas controlled by the Houthi terrorist militia.
Government forces, supported by coalition air operations, continue to target militia positions and combat capabilities on multiple fronts, focusing on command centers, military reinforcements, and supply lines to prevent the regrouping of forces and the restoration of their ability to launch attacks.
The released military statements reflect the continued pace of operations and the expanding scope of the confrontation, as the Yemeni army continues its operations aimed at restoring state control over Yemeni territory.
