| Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. [ColonelCassad] Today the Saudi coalition has swiftly scrambled southward, surrendering part of the western coast of Yemen to the Houthis. The Saudi coalition surrendered all the gains of the 2018 operation in one day after three years. In a day, Hodeidah from the front-line city sharply became a deep rear. In the battles for this piece of road with gates alone, the Saudi coalition lost several dozen AFVs and several hundred people. In fact, the attack on Hodeidah (in 2018) as the last major offensive by the Saudi coalition in Yemen with decisive goals. After being defeated in the Battle of Hodeidah, the Saudis lost the operational initiative in the war and it passed to the Houthis, who, already in 2019, began to regularly conduct offensive operations against the extended front of the invaders.
