The Yemeni army backed by the popular forces and the Houthi revolutionaries pounded a military training base backed by the Saudi-led coalition in Marib city on Saturday with missiles, killing at least 30 soldiers, according to Saudi media.
According to a local military source, the attack killed 24 soldiers and injured 20 others.
“Twenty-four soldiers died, 20 were injured in a missile attack on the barracks for draftees in the al-Milah area in the northwest of the Marib province. The missile was presumably ballistic”, the source said.
Earlier this month, the Yemeni army launched a ballistic missile at a coalition military base located in the southern province of Dhale, killing 10 soldiers.
The conflict in Yemen, the poorest nation in the Middle East, has been described by the United Nations as the world’s worst ongoing humanitarian crisis, with nearly 80 percent of the population of 24-million currently in need of aid and protection.
