The Saudi-led coalition engaged in conflict with Yemen’s Houthi rebels announced on Monday that it had inflicted significant damage on the group’s missile capabilities. According to Maj. Gen. Turki al-Malki, spokesperson for the coalition, a recent operation inside Houthi-controlled territory resulted in the destruction of five tunnels used to store ballistic missiles, along with four missile launchers and a dedicated missile-storage facility.

The operation focused on degrading the Houthis’ capacity to launch attacks inside Saudi Arabia by targeting key infrastructure associated with missile deployment. In addition to destroying these missile-related sites, the coalition said it disrupted supply routes linking various Houthi-controlled areas, aiming to weaken the rebels’ logistical support and military preparedness along front lines in Yemen.

The coalition’s statement emphasizes its ongoing efforts to limit the Houthis’ ability to strike Saudi territory and maintain pressure on the rebel group’s military capabilities. Details on the specific timing and location of the operation inside Yemen were not disclosed, but the announcement reflects continued hostilities in a conflict that has persisted for several years, involving complex regional dynamics and significant humanitarian concerns.
