The Arab News reported that the Coalition to Restore Legitimacy in Yemen announced an operation to liberate the country from the Houthi militia on Tuesday.

Coalition spokesman Brig. Gen. Turki Al-Maliki made the announcement during a visit to the province of Shabwa after it was liberated from the Houthis on Monday.

Attending a joint press conference with the province’s governor, Awadh Mohammed Alaulaqi, Al-Maliki said the operation, which started on Tuesday morning, aimed to “purify Yemen” and establish safety, security, prosperity, and growth in the country.

Al-Maliki said: “Yemen deserves a lot in all areas.” He added that Shabwa united all Yemenis and that they rallied together in order to liberate it.

“The Houthi militia has chosen the path of war” and its violations are clear to all, the spokesman said.

On Monday, the governor of Shabwa announced that the province had been liberated after the Houthis had been expelled from Ain district, the militia’s last pocket of land in the province.
