Yemen’s internationally recognized government said Sunday that its forces carried out 1,272 strikes against Houthi targets over 24 hours and recaptured positions in Al-Jawf, Arab News reported¹. Al Jazeera said the government claimed recapture of military positions and strategic heights east of al-Hazm, the provincial capital².

Arab News, citing military spokesperson Col. Majed Al-Nuzaili on X, said the strikes were part of Operation Dawn of Yemen and targeted fighters, reinforcements, fortifications, firing positions, transport and supply assets¹.

Al-Nuzaili said operations continued on northern, southern and southwestern fronts as well as in Marib and Al-Bayda, and that in Taiz, government troops and allied Popular Resistance fighters were backed by warplanes, drones and artillery¹.

He said the operations “neutralized” about 500 Houthi field commanders and fighters and destroyed or disabled 169 vehicles, pieces of equipment and heavy weapons, Arab News reported¹.

Al Jazeera reported the same government’s claim that forces recaptured military positions and strategic heights east of al-Hazm².

The Houthis said they had thwarted government advances in Al-Jawf and neighboring Marib, Al Jazeera reported; Arab News did not include that denial².

Al Jazeera said fighting continued to deepen a humanitarian crisis in the besieged city of Taiz, while Arab News noted air and artillery support for troops there without detailing civilian impact^1,2.

Independent confirmation of the strike tally, casualty figures and control of specific heights was not in either report, and neither described Houthi losses in the group’s own numbers^1,2.
