Yemeni Armed Forces have targeted aircraft hangars, radar systems and arms depots at King Khalid Air Base in Saudi Arabia’s southern region of Asir.

The Ansarullah-led Yemeni Armed Forces’ advance along the Red Sea coast has shifted Yemen’s balance of power, signaling a move toward offensive strategy against Saudi-led aggression and siege, analyst says.

Saudi airstrikes have targeted the areas recently liberated by Yemeni armed forces and allied fighters as the forces continue to make advances against Saudi-backed mercenary militants.

The Yemeni military’s rapid Red Sea advances shattered Saudi-backed positions, exposed coalition weaknesses, and reshaped Yemen’s strategic balance, while giving Sana’a greater leverage over regional security, maritime chokepoints, and future negotiations.

A senior military commander says Yemeni Armed Forces dealt a significant blow to the so-called ‘New Middle East’ project after they completed their control over the Bab al-Mandab Strait.

Yemeni army forces have liberated 100s of kilometers along the strategic Red Sea coast, and inflicted heavy losses on Saudi-backed mercenary forces.

The confirmation marks the latest in a string of rapid territorial gains by the Yemeni Armed Forces, which include Ansarullah units, along the western coast.
