Part 8/11:
This sustained bombing campaign aims to dismantle the Houthis' operational infrastructure—covering command centers, communication nodes, weapons depots, and drone manufacturing facilities. U.S. national security adviser Mike Waltz announced on CBS's Face the Nation that these strikes had taken out the group's top leadership, a significant blow to their capacity to launch missile and drone attacks.
The strikes have reportedly leveled several strategic sites, including a building in western Sana'a, which allegedly resulted in casualties—one confirmed dead and 13 injured, according to local sources cited by Houthi media. While the Houthis have yet to confirm the losses, their tendency to downplay setbacks means that the effectiveness of these strikes remains somewhat ambiguous.
