On 6 August 2026, the Houthis launched ballistic missile and drone strikes on military camps in Yemen’s Marib and Hadramawt provinces, killing at least 30 Yemeni government troops, according to Reuters, though other military sources cited by the BBC put the toll considerably higher. The Houthis said they had targeted Saudi-backed troop build-ups they said were preparing an offensive against Houthi-held territory.
Separately, the Saudi-led coalition said a Houthi strike wounded 11 civilians, including Saudi nationals, in Najran, Saudi Arabia.
