Houthis say Saudi Arabia carried out 32 airstrikes in Yemen

The Iran-backed Houthi movement says Saudi Arabia has carried out more than 30 attacks on several regions in Yemen.

The data comes a day after the Houthis carried out extensive attacks on targets in Saudi Arabia, with over 70 civilians reportedly injured.

The Houthi movement's television channel Almasirah reported on Wednesday that 32 Saudi airstrikes had been carried out against "Marib, Al-Jawf, Taiz and Hodeida in the last few hours."

Saudi Arabia has not commented on the information.

Deadly fighting flared up in Yemen again last week, when the Houthi movement launched an offensive to seize territory near the Bab al-Mandab Strait.

The waterway has become increasingly important since traffic in the Strait of Hormuz has been blocked due to the Iran war.
