Local Editor

The Yemeni army and popular committees bombarded on Thursday the positions of Saudi soldiers and their militia in Jizan region with artillery shells, a military source told Yemen Press Agency.

The army’s artillery attacked gatherings of the Saudi soldiers and their militia in al-Dood and Jahfan mountains, the source said.

Saudi Arabia and some of its allies, including the United Arab Emirates, Morocco, and Sudan, launched the brutal war in an attempt to reinstall former president Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi and crush the country’s popular Houthi Ansarullah movement, which has played a significant role, alongside the Yemeni army, in defending the nation.

Some 15,000 Yemenis have so far been killed and thousands more injured as a result of the bloody campaign which has also left a record 22.2 million Yemenis in a dire need of food, including 8.4 million threatened by severe hunger, according to UN statistics.
