YEMENI WAR REPORT–JUNE 21, 2018: AL-HUDAYDAH AIRPORT STILL REMAINS CONTESTED Fierce clashes between the Saudi-led coalition’s forces and the Houthis are ongoing near the port city of al-Hudaydah in western Yemen. On June 19, the coalition’s forces once again entered the al-Hudaydah airport claiming that this time they really captured it. However, they were not able to establish full control of this important facility because of a fierce resistance from the Houthis. On June 20, clashes in the area continued. Since June 13, when the coalition kicked off its advance on al-Hudaydah, pro-Saudi sources had claimed at least 3 times that the airport is in the hands of the coalition. All these claims appeared to be false. The control of the airport is an important if the coalition wants to storm the city from the southern direction. At the same time, coalition-led fighters continued their attempt to outflank al-Hudaydah.
