> The Saudi-led coalition says it intercepted a Houthi ballistic missile aimed at Saudi Arabia’s south. Fighting between Yemeni government forces and the Houthis continues in al-Jawf and other fronts. Houthi-affiliated media say coalition strikes wounded seven people in Hodeidah; the coalition has not commented. Government forces claim to have carried out extensive operations, which Al Jazeera could not independently verify. The Houthis’ siege of Taiz is worsening shortages and pressure on health services.
