Yemen’s Army Launches Retaliatory Attacks At Militant Gatherings in Nihem

Local Editor

The Yemeni army launched on Monday an offensive on sites of militants loyal to the Saudi-led coalition in Nihem district of Sana’a province, a military official told Yemen Press Agency.

The battle, which took place in Hawl area, left dozens of militants dead and wounded, the official said.

Saudi Arabia and a number of its regional allies launched a devastating military campaign against Yemen in March 2015, with the aim of bringing the regime of former president Abd Rabbu Mansur Hadi back to power and crushing the country’s Houthi Ansarullah movement.

Some 16,000 Yemenis have been killed and thousands more injured since the onset of the Saudi-led aggression.

More than 2,200 others have died of cholera, and the crisis has triggered what the United Nations has described as the world's worst humanitarian disaster.
