The Yemeni army and popular forces` artillery and missile units hit military groups and sites of the Saudi soldiers in Jizan province, a military official said on Wednesday.
The positions and posts were shelled in Muthalath al-Rokbah area.
Also, the missile forces fired Katyusha rockets on the Saudi troops in the Al-Hamad military site.
Meanwhile, Saudi Apache helicopters fired 45 rockets on al-Namir village, al-Dokhan and al-Sawdah areas and Jarah valley of Jizan to back their soldiers after they fled their posts.
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 10,000 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.
