Army Launches Retaliatory Attack in Asir, Jizan

Local Editor

Yemen’s army snipers killed four Saudi troops in the northern Al Khubah zone in Saudi Arabia’s Jizan region, media reports said Wednesday.

The army and people’s committees also destroyed a Saudi vehicle in the Kingdom’s southwestern region of Asir.

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 11,400 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.
