A sniper unit of the army and popular committees shot dead on Thursday three Saudi soldiers in Jizan and Najran regions, a military official told Saba.

A specialized Unit of the army and popular committees destroyed a Saudi Abrams tank in al-Kars military camp with a guided missile.

Another tank was destroyed near Jawbah military site tower.

The army and popular committees burnt two Saudi military vehicles and weapons store in al-Mesyal military site in Aser region, the official said.

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.
