Riyadh (Agencies): A spokesperson for the Coalition supporting legitimacy, Brigadier General Turki Al-Maliki, refuted on Saturday the Houthi claims of targeting the Saudi capital Riyadh, describing those allegations as misleading. Brigadier General Al-Maliki, the Coalition’s spokesperson, stated that the losses suffered by the Houthis in Taiz and the ongoing human casualties among group members at the hands of the heroes of the Yemeni Armed Forces and the popular resistance across all fronts have driven them to seek illusory victories. He explained this behavior as an attempt to divert attention from the scale of their losses and the growing public anger over the militia’s conduct and its ties to external agendas that have brought chaos and devastation to Yemen. The Iran-backed group claimed it had targeted Riyadh, at a time when unified Yemeni forces are engaged in battles to repel Houthi attempts to consolidate positions they had attacked on the western coast. Recent Yemeni reports indicate that the group has lost approximately 5,000 fighters over two weeks, while the Yemeni Armed Forces are conducting a series of aerial and ground military operations across various fronts targeted by the Houthis.
