Fighting intensified in Yemen's Taiz province, leaving at least 80 people dead in just 24 hours, according to Deutsche Welle.
The province saw Houthi forces advance into new areas, alongside the severing of a vital road linking the city of Taiz to Aden province, a development likely to deepen the military and humanitarian complications in the region.
No further details were available on the specific warring parties involved in the clashes, or on the humanitarian situation of residents in the areas affected by the road closure.
These developments come amid Yemen's years-long war, which has seen fluctuations between periods of escalation and relative calm on various fronts.
