Local Editor

The official Yemeni news agency Saba reported that the national army targeted groups of Saudi soldiers and mercenaries in a number of sites in Najran province on Wednesday.

A military official to the state-run news agency that the artillery of the army and popular committees targeted the Saudi army and its mercenaries at the sites of Abasa, Al-Tala'a, Dhalm and Al Harm, causing direct casualties.

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 12,000 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.
