Yemen’s national army's artillery, backed by the popular forces, hit a gathering of US-backed Saudi-led mercenaries in Magbana district of Taiz province, a security official told the state-run news agency Saba on Monday.
The shelling inflicted heavy losses upon the mercenaries.
Meanwhile, the Saudi-led coalition warplanes launched 19 raids over the past hours on the neighboring Mocha port city.
Saudi Arabia has come under international opprobrium for the sheer size of the casualties from the war it is leading since March 2015 to crush the Houthi Ansarullah movement and bring back the former Yemeni government to power.
The offensive has so far killed 11,403 amid countless reports suggesting deliberate and indiscriminate targeting of civilian infrastructure by Saudi jets and mercenaries.
