Airstrikes kill 110 Houthis rebels in Yemen

In Yemen, 110 Houthis rebels have been killed in airstrikes carried out by the Arab Coalition in Marib city. 

The Saudi-led coalition in Yemen Tuesday said that it had killed 110 Houthi rebels in airstrikes over the past 24 hours around Marib, the government's last northern bastion. 

In a statement, the coalition said 22 military vehicles and weapons storage facilities has also been destroyed in the strikes.

The coalition intervened militarily in 2015 to prop up the internationally recognized Yemeni government, has been reporting strikes and rebel deaths almost daily in recent weeks. The push began in February but has intensified since September after a lull. 

Yemen's civil war sparked after the Houthis seized the capital Sanaa in 2014, prompting Saudi-led forces to intervene to support the government the following year.

Since the conflict erupted, tens of thousands of people, mostly civilians, have been killed and millions displaced in what the UN calls the world's worst humanitarian crisis.
