HODEIDAH-SABA
Yemen's armed forces have advanced closer towards the main public university of Hodeidah in their military pressure against the Houthi rebels. The operations staff officer of the Giants Brigades overrunning the Red Sea port city Col. Ahmed al-Subeihi told the Defense Ministry's website that the troops are now besieging the Houthi rebel militiamen from the east, west and south of Hodeidah leaving them with only the northern exit – Alsaleef rout.

The government says that the Houthi militia, throughout their years of control on the Red Sea port city, have been obstructing humanitarian supply to the people of Hodeidah and using the huge revenues of the port to finance their coup-induced rule and insurgency that have plunged Yemen in its worst humanitarian crisis ever.
