Saudi warplanes keep up their strikes against civilian targets across Yemen.
According to Yemen’s al-Masirah television, at least six civilians were injured as a Saudi air raid hit the district of Majz in the province of Sa’ada.
Riyadh also launched rocket and artillery attacks on the areas of al-Sheikh and al-Umar in the Munabbih district of the same province. The residential buildings and farms in the area were struck in the attacks.
A security source told Yemen News Agency that the Saudi jets also pounded the province’s district of Kitaf.
At least 25 Saudi airstrikes also hit several areas across the province of Ta’izz, including the districts of Wazi’iyah and Dhubab as well as Ta’izz International Airport.
In retaliation for the kingdom’s relentless airstrikes, the Yemeni army and allied forces targeted Saudi military men on the kingdom’s soil.
Yemen’s War Media released footage showing a Saudi military vehicle destroyed in the southwestern region of Jizan on Monday after it was attacked by Yemeni forces.
The Yemeni troops ambushed the vehicle near Jizan’s al-Khashal military base, killing all the Saudi military men on board.
The Yemeni forces also fired a medium-range ballistic missile at al-Faisal military base in Jizan. The attack comes a day after fighters of Yemen’s Houthi Ansarullah movement released footage of a ballistic missile attack on King Salman Air Base in the Saudi capital Riyadh.
Also on Monday, the Yemeni troops targeted military positions in the kingdom’s regions of Najran, Asir and Jizan, killing and injuring a number of Saudi soldiers.
Saudi Arabia has been leading a destructive military campaign against Yemen since March 2015 to reinstate former president Abd Rabbu Mansour Hadi and crush the Houthi movement.
The campaign has seriously damaged the country’s infrastructure. Local Yemeni sources have put the death toll from the Saudi war at over 12,000, including many women and children.
