Houthi forces advance on Yemeni government-held city of Taiz

Houthi forces are conducting intensified offensives toward Marib and Taiz, key Saudi-backed government strongholds in Yemen. While government forces claim to have repelled some Houthi attempts in Taiz, the broader Houthi advance on these strategic locations is claimed to be ongoing, indicating a potential shift in front-line dynamics. The extent of territorial gains and the overall success of the Houthi offensive remain unconfirmed.
