Fighting erupted on the western outskirts of Taiz on Wednesday, 21 October, as Yemeni government forces and allied Popular Resistance fighters clashed with Houthi fighters near the city's old airport and Jabal Han mountain. The internationally recognised government said it repelled the attack and reported air strikes on Houthi positions, while residents and aid agencies warned that the siege is creating a deepening public health crisis.
