Local Editor

Dozens of US-Saudi-paid mercenaries were killed when Yemen’s national army and popular forces secured Al-Masdaha site in Al-Sabren area in Al-Jawf province, a military official told the state-run news agency Saba on Saturday.

The operation was carried out when the army and popular forces stormed the location in Khaba and Al-Shaaf district.

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 11,403 people have been killed and over 19,343 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.
