A spokesman for Yemen's armed forces said Saturday that the total number of Saudi airstrikes and missile attacks has risen to 1,059 since the latest escalation of the conflict, according to Iran's Mehr News agency.
The statement did not provide a specific timeframe for when the latest escalation began, but framed the figure as part of an ongoing pattern of what the spokesman described as aggressive military action.
Continued reporting of military activity
Yemen's armed forces have periodically issued updated tallies of airstrikes as the conflict has continued, using such figures to characterize the intensity of the campaign against them. The latest count adds to previous statements tracking the scale of the strikes.
There was no immediate independent confirmation of the figure, and Saudi authorities were not reported to have issued a public response to the specific claim at the time of the statement.
The report reflects the continuing volatility of the conflict, with both sides periodically issuing statements about the scale and intensity of military activity.
