RIYADH: The Arab coalition said on Tuesday it carried out 43 operations targeting Houthi mechanisms and elements in Abdiya, south of Marib in Yemen, during the past 24 hours, Saudi state TV reported.

“We targeted nine military vehicles belonging to the Houthi militia in Abdiya, and their casualties included 134 members,” the coalition said.

It also said that the Iranian-backed Houthi militia is preventing entry for relief organizations and aid to the besieged people in Abdiya.
