The Yemeni armed forces escalated their operations against the Houthis on Saturday in Marib province, targeting gatherings and weapon depots in the Al-Jawbah district to the south, coinciding with a drone strike that hit a vehicle loaded with weapons in the Al-Kasara front in the northwest of the province.

A correspondent for "Al Arabiya/Al Hadath" reported that the Yemeni armed forces targeted gatherings and weapon depots belonging to the Houthis in the Al-Jawbah district south of Marib, as part of the ongoing military operations on the fronts of the province.

In another front, the drone aircraft of the Yemeni armed forces targeted a vehicle carrying weapons for the Houthis in the Al-Kasara front in the northwest of Marib, according to the correspondent for "Al Arabiya/Al Hadath."

These new strikes come amid escalating confrontations on the fronts of Marib over the past weeks, as the southern, western, and northern fronts witness clashes and mutual shelling, with an increasing use of drones to target military sites and movements.

The government forces have intensified their operations in Marib in recent times. On September 19, military sources reported that Yemeni forces were engaged in battles with the Houthis on the Al-Mashjah front west of Marib, coinciding with the targeting of reinforcements and gatherings in the Um Rish and the former 26th Brigade camps in the Al-Jawbah district, along with the Mal'a pass in Harib in the southern part of the governorate.

On September 20, the government forces announced the targeting of Houthi positions, gatherings, and vehicles with artillery and drones in the southern Marib fronts, coinciding with the shelling of vehicles in the western front.

As for the Al-Kasara front, which witnessed the recent targeting, it was among the areas that have been subjected to military operations over the past weeks. On September 14, Al-Arabiya reported that Yemeni forces targeted Houthi positions in Jabal Helan and the Al-Kasara area, including launch pads and field reinforcements.

The intensity of confrontations in Yemen has escalated since the beginning of September, with military movements by the Houthis on the western coast and areas near Bab al-Mandab, in contrast to the intensification of government forces' operations on the fronts of Marib, Al-Jawf, and Taiz.
