Houthi terror hub hit

The coalition airstrikes, led by Saudi Arabia, targeted the key areas held by Houthi rebels at Sadaa in Yemen in the past 24 hours, destroying a communication facility, rebel headquarters and places where arms and ammunition were stored.
The air raids, which began on Friday evening, also successfully targeted rebel camps and gatherings, the Coalition Command said.
It urged civilians to stay away from Houthi gatherings and their military sites.
“We have kept two options open — military support to Operation Restoring Hope and, at the same time, a fitting response to those who carried out attacks on the cities of Najran and Jazan,” defense spokesman Brig. Gen. Ahmed Al-Assiri told reporters at the Riyadh airbase on Saturday.
The coalition forces carried out 130 airstrikes targeting 100 sites in Sadaa, Maran, Albiqaa and the borders between the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and Yemen, he said.
“The air raids focused on the headquarters and command and control of the Houthi leaders. Currently, the aim of the operation now is to prevent the movement of the rebels, protection of Yemeni citizens and facilitation of relief and humanitarian work in the country,” Al-Assiri added.
The Coalition Command stressed that the airstrikes achieved its objective in Sadaa through destroying the headquarters of the Houthi leadership, including that of Abdul-Malik Al-Houthi in Duhayan, Jabal Al-Tyes and the Directorate of Majaz.
The Coalition Command said the air raids also targeted the headquarters of Mohammed Hassan Qabali in Bani Moaz in Sadaa, Ahmed Nasser Almaran in Bani Moaz in Saada, Hamid Alsmad, the official spokesman of the Houthi militia Mohammed Abdulsalam in Sohar Directorate, Houthi political office director Saleh Habra in Saada, Ahmed Saleh Hendi in Mzab, member of the Houthi Cultural Office Saleh Alsmad Abu Fadel, Abdulkarim Alhouthi in Dhyan, director of the Houthi militia office in Altalh Mehdi Al-Mashat and two headquarters of the Houthi militia military leaders (Dgsan and Abu Salem) in Saada, in addition to destruction of the headquarters of the leader of Yousef Al-Fishi.
