The Yemeni army and popular committees repulsed on Tuesday an attempt by the Saudi-paid mercenaries to advance towards Osailan district of Shabwa province, a military official to the state-run news agency Saba.
The allied forces repelled Saudi-paid mercenaries towards al-Saq and Wahid Ben Aqeel sites in Osailan under an intense air cover by the US-Saudi aggression warplanes.
Around 18 Saudi-paid mercenaries were killed and dozens others injured in the clashes. Two of the mercenaries’ leaders Saleh Mohammed Merjan and Mansour Abdu-Rabu al-Mansori were among the dead.
Meanwhile, the US-Saudi aggression warplanes launched a series of air raids on Osailan and Baihan districts to back its troops in the two districts.
