The Houthi insurgency in Yemen has carried out in the last hours a new missile attack on the city of Aden, where the Yemeni government operates after being relocated from Sana'a, with the declared objective of striking "civilians and civilian infrastructure," without for now any report of possible deaths or injuries.
Colonel Mayid al Nuzaili, spokesperson for the Yemeni Army, has confirmed that "ballistic missiles" were used and has described the action as "a dangerous escalation for which the militia is fully responsible for its repercussions."
"As is their custom, they resort to directing their terrorism against civilians, cities and vital facilities, in flagrant violation of International Humanitarian Law," the military spokesperson said, directly holding the Houthis responsible for the consequences of the bombing.
For their part, the insurgency has limited itself to acknowledging "an attack on a group of Saudi officers was carried out at the Jabal Hadid camp, in the governorate of Aden," without providing more information about the outcome of the operation. Saudi Arabia leads the international coalition that fights the Houthis in Yemen.
Meanwhile, the rebels have denounced an intense air campaign by the coalition, asserting that Saudi fighter jets have carried out 85 bombing raids over the provinces of Lahj, Taiz, Saada, Al Jauf, Marib and Ibb.
In addition, they have reported missile launches from the Saudi base in Najran, "which has caused martyrs and injured people among civilians," according to their own channels, in a new exchange of accusations within the framework of the Yemeni conflict.
