🔶 CNN: The United States increased its advisory support for Saudi operations against the Houthis

The news network “CNN” reported that as Houthi attacks increased, Saudi Arabia intensified its military operation against the group in Yemen.

Citing several informed sources, the network wrote that more than 100 and probably about 200 American military personnel are present in Saudi Arabia and help Saudi forces with the exchange of information, target identification, and real-time monitoring of the battlefield.

According to CNN’s report, the United States is not directly participating in the attacks and is not providing fuel to Saudi fighter jets.

Based on the latest reports, Yemen’s legitimate government forces have pushed back Iran-backed Houthis in some fronts, but on Thursday, Shahrivar 19 (September 10), the group seized the strategic port city of Mukha; an action that could increase the threat to the Bab al-Mandab shipping route.
