Yemen government forces announce offensive on Houthi-held territory
The internationally recognised Yemeni government announced on Sunday the launch of an offensive to recapture territory held by Houthi rebels, with President Rashad al-Alimi swearing to fight "until the country is liberated from the grip of the terrorist militia".
What the coverage shows
Both outlets focus on the government announcing a new offensive aimed at Houthi-held territory. The Guardian US frames it as a Saudi-backed drive to retake all territory and, uniquely in its extract, links the announcement to reported Houthi gains and a cut supply route near Taiz. France 24 uses the language of the internationally recognised government and quotes President Rashad al-Alimi saying the fighting would continue until the country is liberated.
