Yemeni Army Targets Saudi Military Posts in Najran, Jizan

Local Editor

A Yemeni military source said that the national military and the Popular Committees managed on Tuesday to fight off an attack by the Saudi-US aggression forces against Ad-Dood position in Jizan province, leaving dozens of the attacking military forces dead or wounded.

The Yemeni army also captured a Saudi vehicle and ammunition during fighting the attack.

The attack is the second in a row on the same position by Saudi-led forces.

In a similar development in Jizan, Yemeni army launched an anti-armor rocket at Al-Karas position, destroying a Bradley-type vehicle used by the US-Saudi aggression troops.

Elsewhere in Saudi Arabia’s Najran region, the Yemeni Missile Unit launched a Zelzal-3 ballistic missile at the Belyalin military post.

Saudi Arabia began its deadly campaign against Yemen in late March 2015. The strikes were meant to undermine the Houthi Ansarullah movement and restore power to fugitive former president Abd Rabbu Mansour Hadi.

About 10,000 people have been killed and over 16,000 injured since Riyadh launched the airstrikes. The Saudi aggression has also taken a heavy toll on Yemen’s facilities and infrastructure.

Yemeni forces have been engaged in retaliatory attacks against the Saudi forces deployed in the country as well as targets inside Saudi Arabia.
