Yemeni National Resistance: 36 Missiles, 42 Houthi Drones Fail on West Coast.

The military media of the National Resistance in Yemen announced that the Iran‑affiliated Houthi militia targeted areas and districts of the western coast over the past few days with 36 ballistic missiles and 42 drones, in addition to attacks using explosive‑laden boats, without managing to achieve any military objective.

The military media clarified in a statement, a copy of which was obtained byNashwan News, that the National Resistance's defenses managed to shoot down 11 drones before they reached their targets, while the National Resistance Navy and Coast Guard forces destroyed two explosive‑laden boats and foiled the terrorist militia's attempts.

It added that despite the intensity of the attacks and the militia's use of dozens of ballistic missiles, drones, and attempted infiltration via explosive boats, it did not achieve any notable military objective, while its assaults extended to the port of Mokha and service and civilian facilities.

In contrast, the military media said that the Houthi militia suffered heavy losses in lives and equipment across various front‑line locations, due to the strikes it receives during and after its assaults, according to monitoring and tracking operations targeting its movements, hideouts, and reinforcements.

Earlier this Friday morning, the National Resistance artillery announced that it had pounded the militia's gatherings, hideouts, barracks, and vehicles across various combat axes along the western coast fronts, in response to the militia's targeting of the Dhubab‑Mandeb district with two ballistic missiles and areas south of Al‑Khokha with suicide drones.

It is noteworthy that the Houthis claimed responsibility for the attacks, which focused on the port of Mokha and numerous sites in the city of Mokha and elsewhere, causing widespread destruction in the port and resulting in civilian and military casualties and injuries.
