The Houthi terrorist militia targeted dozens of shells in the homes of civilians in Al-Tuhita, south of Al-Hodeidah Governorate, in separate parts of the city.

On Tuesday evening, a mortar shell landed on the home of Suleiman Obaid Salem, in the village of Al-Jaroubah, east of Al-Tuhita.

A local source told Newsyemen that the Houthi missile destroyed large parts of the house, from which its residents were displaced to the centre of the city after noting the Houthi escalation of their city.

Other sources reported that the Houthi militia targeted yesterday the Al-Khansaa Girls School, east of Al-Tuhita.

The indiscriminate shelling caused panic and terror among the residents as a result of targeting residential neighborhoods in Al-Tuhita city.

In a related context, local sources told Newsyemen that Houthi reinforcements have arrived from Zabid to Al-Tuhita to reinforce the militias' fronts in the Al-Mughars and Suwaiq areas.

According to the sources, the militias are pushing with reinforcements in order to reach the coast line of Al-Faza, to cut it, as clashes continue with the joint forces, while the desperate attempts of the Houthi militia were unsuccessful in earlier times.

Al-Faza residents expressed their deep concern about the fall of rocket-propelled grenades in the area and population centers due to the artillery shelling of the Houthi militia.
