Yemen's internationally recognized government announced that its forces have retaken control of the port city of Mokha and made progress along the strategic Bab al-Mandab Strait. The advances come as part of a counteroffensive backed by the Saudi Arabia-led military coalition, which has been fighting against Houthi rebels in Yemen for years. Meanwhile, reports indicate that Houthi forces have launched attacks targeting airports in Saudi Arabia. Turki Al-Maliki, spokesperson for the Saudi-led coalition, confirmed these developments but did not provide further details on casualties or damage sustained from the strikes.
