Yemen Fortifies Aden
The internationally recognized Yemeni government fortified its positions west and north of Aden after the Houthis advanced and took control of strategic positions in al-Maqatirah district and large parts of al-Mudharaba and al-Arah in Lahj governorate, where the high ground overlooks the Gulf of Aden. Military officials said the Houthis were moving east and south toward the gulf and the Bab al-Mandab Strait, while government forces fought to retake territory as part of a counteroffensive launched in early October with support from Riyadh. Fighting over the previous two days left dozens dead. Four people were also killed in an attack on the presidential Maashiq Palace in Aden on October 15.
