A Houthi strike in the oil-rich Yemeni region of Marib has resulted in civilian casualties, according to Yemen's government. Health Minister Qassem Bahaibah stated that two civilians were killed and 14 others wounded in the attack, accusing the Houthi group of specifically targeting residential areas and displacement camps.

In response to the escalation, a source close to the Saudi-led coalition—which has supported the Yemeni government since 2015—warned that the coalition would not remain idle as Houthi attacks increase. The source emphasized that Marib represents a "red line" for the coalition forces.
