Information ministry adviser: government has drawn up a military strategy to liberate Houthi-held governorates

Yemen ·

Faisal bin Mohammed al-Awadhi, an adviser to Yemen's information ministry, said intensive airstrikes on Houthi positions are part of a military plan aimed at advancing toward the capital and ending the suffering of Yemeni people.

Yemen's Houthi movement (Ansar Allah) controls Sanaa and much of the north, and has been fighting government forces since the conflict escalated in 2014.
