Taiz and Sana'a witness violent raids on Houthi rebel camps

Violent clashes have continued today in Taiz and the Yemeni capital Sana’a against Houthi rebel camps in a bid to liberate both cities. Officials from the Yemeni Army say their forces and the Saudi-led Arab coalition troops now have a stronghold over strategic areas south of Taiz. They have also taken full control of the city of Al Rahida, the second biggest town in the province. Coalition troops have conducted air raids near Sana’a on military sites belonging to the rebels. Meanwhile, the Emirates Red Cross is in Aden providing humanitarian aid to those that have been affected by the fighting.
