The Saudi Apache military chopper exploded after it was hit by the Yemeni forces’ missile in Jizan.
The Yemeni forces’ development came in retaliation for the continued Saudi-led airstrikes on Yemen.
A Saudi-led coalition backed by the United States has been bombarding Yemen for 149 days now in an attempt to restore power to fugitive Yemeni president Mansour Hadi, a close ally of Saudi Arabia.
The ’civilian’ death toll in Yemen has risen to at least 1,916, with another 4,186 civilians wounded since the escalation of the conflict in March, the United Nations [UN] reported recently this month.
