A month after the launch of Operation Yemen Dawn, Saudi-backed government forces are struggling to regain control of the territory from the Houthi rebels. While they claim to have made progress around the strategic Bab el-Mandeb Strait, the front lines have barely shifted, and Houthi fighters continue their advance in the south, notably encircling the city of Taiz and approaching Aden. Despite military reinforcements and airstrikes, no decisive victory is in sight, suggesting a protracted conflict.
