It is noteworthy that fighting has escalated since last July between the Houthis and the internationally recognized Yemeni government. Meanwhile, the militias surged along the Red Sea coast of the country more than a week ago, seizing the main coastal city of Mocha and islands in the Bab al-Mandab Strait at the southern tip of the Red Sea.

While the Yemeni forces confirmed that they will redeploy, emphasizing the continuation of strikes and confrontations against the Houthis on all fronts.

The Yemeni government also warned that the Houthis' approach to Bab al-Mandab threatens international navigation.

Meanwhile, the Houthis announced yesterday, Saturday, the death of 73 of their members, including 25 with military ranks, in the latest series of funeral announcements published by media affiliated with the militias, raising the number of their dead announced for burial since mid-July to 413.
