Marib hosts the largest number of internally displaced people in Yemen, with more than two million of the roughly five million Yemenis forced from their homes over the course of the war living there.
Video footage verified by Al Jazeera showed destruction in the aftermath of Saturday’s strikes.
Yemen’s Ministry of Information said on X that the continued targeting of Marib’s densely populated areas marked a dangerous “escalation” that threatens lives and increases suffering.
The attacks on Marib came alongside clashes further south, where Yemeni government forces claimed drone strikes killed three fighters from the Iran-backed Houthis on Saturday, including field commanders, and wounded others along the Maqbanah front west of Taiz.
Um ataque separado destruiu um veículo militar Houthi em Jabal al-Zuhayb, matando vários outros combatentes, disse uma fonte militar à Agência de Notícias do Iêmen (Saba).
The attacks are part of a rapid escalation that has gripped Yemen since early August, when Houthi missile and drone strikes on military camps in Marib and Hadramout killed at least 30 government soldiers, the deadliest single episode of the conflict in years.
Days later, Houthi missiles killed at least two civilians and wounded 14 in Marib, and further strikes killed seven people in the port city of al-Makha (Mocha).
The Houthis, backed by Iran, control much of Yemen’s northern territory, including the capital, Sanaa.
O Enviado Especial das Nações Unidas para o Iêmen, Hans Grundberg, alertou o Conselho de Segurança da ONU na quinta-feira de que o Iêmen enfrenta seu maior risco de retorno à guerra em grande escala desde a trégua mediada pela ONU em abril de 2022, à medida que os combates se intensificaram em múltiplos fronts e ameaçam desfazer mais de quatro anos de calma relativa.
