Yemen armed forces told Al Jazeera they struck Houthi equipment and personnel in
Dhubab and Al‑Khokha, saying the attacks targeted Houthi-held positions in both
Red Sea coastal areas. Al‑Khokha is a Red Sea coastal town in southern Hodeidah
province about 163 km south of Hodeidah city; Dhubab is a small Taiz coastal
town on the Bab al‑Mandeb strait.
