Bei Zusammenstößen mit Kämpfern der Houthi-Miliz sind nach Angaben aus Militärkreisen 13 jemenitische Regierungssoldaten getötet worden. Die vom Iran unterstützten Houthi hätten entlang der Frontlinien an der westlichen Küste des Roten Meeres eine groß angelegte Offensive gestartet, um "in Richtung Bab al-Mandab und in von Regierungstruppen gehaltene Gebiete vorzudringen", erfuhr AFP am Donnerstag aus Militärkreisen.

Strikes by Iran-backed Houthi rebels on August 9 killed at least 11 people, a medical source in the Yemeni port city of Mokha told AFP, after an earlier drone salvo targeted a Saudi oil refinery on the Red Sea coast.
