The Saudi-led military coalition in Yemen said on Saturday (Sunday in Manila) it has killed more than 150 more Houthi rebels in the past 24 hours in raids around the northern pro-government bastion of Marib. 

The coalition, which backs Yemen's internationally recognized government, has reported near-daily strikes over the past month against the Iran-backed Houthi, each time claiming high losses. The air strikes targeted two regions of oil-rich Marib province, Al-Jawf in the north and the south's Al-Bayda, it said, as well as Sirwah, west of Marib city. 

The Houthis began a major push to seize the city in February and, after a lull, they renewed their offensive in September.
