Speaking in an interview with Al-Hadath TV, Al-Shumairi added that Yemeni air operations aim to prevent Houthi reinforcements from reaching the western coast near Bab Al-Mandab.
He explained that these strikes target any incoming supplies and military movements, as the Houthis are currently trying to expand in areas adjacent to the Bab Al-Mandab Strait from all directions.
Al-Shumairi noted that the Houthis require military resources, supplies, and protection along the coast, prompting them to organize internal fortifications along a stretch that could extend up to 40 kilometers, as they anticipate attacks against them.
He continued that the main objective of the Yemeni airstrikes is to prevent supplies from reaching these Houthi strongholds.
