According to Colonel Al-Nuzaili, the 24-hour barrage included 29 airstrikes, 39 drone strikes, 62 rocket-launcher barrages, and 744 field artillery bombardments, targeting Houthi troop concentrations, newly arrived reinforcements, and fortified positions across multiple battlefronts.
Government coalition units—including the Nation's Shield Forces, Giants Brigades, National Resistance, Shabwa Defense Forces, and Popular Resistance—achieved significant territorial gains in the southern and southwestern sectors while successfully repelling Houthi offensives in northern fronts such as Al-Jawf and Marib. The overarching military campaign, launched on October 5, aims to fully dismantle Houthi control and reclaim northern Yemen, including the capital city of Sana'a, while maintaining strict safeguards to protect civilian infrastructure.
