The Yemeni army’s missile force launched on Thursday a ballistic missile at the US-backed Saudi-led coalition’s militiamen in Hodeida province, a military official told Yemen Press Agency.
The Badr-1-P missile targeted the positions of the militants in the western coast front, the official added.
The US, Britain and France are a major arms supplier to Saudi Arabia and human rights groups have called on the governments to cease such sales due to the high civilian death toll in Saudi air raids in Yemen.
According to UN figures, the Yemen conflict has killed nearly 10,000 people and left up to 22 million in need of humanitarian assistance.
An independent conflict research group has estimated that 56,000 have been killed since January 2016 which does not include those who have died from hunger and disease.
