Tens of pro-Saudi militants were killed in Yemen’s Ma’rib as well as ten vehicles belonging to them were destroyed, a report by Al-Ahed news website said.
The source also reported the death of an Emirati officer during clashes in al-Jafina area in Marib.
On March 26, Saudi Arabia and some of its Arab allies backed by the United States began to launch a military aggression against Yemen by launching air strikes against the country in an attempt to restore power to the fugitive former Yemeni President, Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi, a close ally of Saudi Arabia.
The airstrikes have not been authorized by the UN.
As a result, the Yemeni army backed by popular committees and tribal fighters has been responding to the aggression by targeting several Saudi border military posts and cleansing several areas across the country from Hadi and al-Qaeda-linked militias.
