In Yemen, government forces supported by Saudi Arabia have launched a counter-offensive on multiple fronts, claiming to have retaken strategic areas along the Red Sea, according to RFI.
In response, the Houthi rebels have carried out several missile strikes targeting notably the international airport of Riyadh. The interception of one missile damaged a kindergarten and a medical complex.
Furthermore, these attacks have been accompanied by a wave of disinformation on social media, complicating the monitoring of the situation on the ground.
