26th - 28th January 2017
Saudi Royal Ariforce attack Khaifa Bridge in Hajjah governorate on 26 January 2017, hitting it twice.
The objective is to destroy the bridge. The Houthi play needs to get their supply units off the eastern edge of the map.
The road connects Amran and Sanaa with the Hodeidah and the western coast and was important as a supply route.
The bombing meant that the bridge could not be used and a ford just some distance downstream had to be used, but that slowed traffic down and was unusable in when the river was swollen.
