The Saudi-backed Yemeni government announced late Saturday that it had carried out an attack on Houthi forces in eastern Yemen, according to reports. The announcement did not specify the scale of the operation or whether there were casualties.

As The Zioneer has reported, the Houthis have published multiple threat videos in recent weeks, and Saudi-aligned forces have periodically clashed with the group in Yemen's eastern regions.
