At least 15 pro-Hadi militias were killed in retaliatory attacks in the north and in a suspected militant bombing in Aden on Sunday, military and security sources said.
Houthi Ansarullah revolutionaries and their allies launched twin attacks to try to retake the port of Midi in the northern province of Hajja, after loyalists had captured it, military sources said.
"Eleven soldiers were killed in the attacks and 28 others were wounded," a military official said.
Meanwhile, Saudi-led coalition warplanes carried out 15 air strikes against the allied forces to stop their advance in the area, military sources said.
Other air strikes hit the capital Sana’a and other provinces over the past 24 hours, they added.
Saudi Arabia began its deadly campaign against Yemen in late March 2015. The strikes were meant to undermine the Houthi Ansarullah movement and restore power to fugitive former president Abd Rabbu Mansour Hadi.
About 10,000 people have been killed and over 16,000 injured since Riyadh launched the airstrikes. The Saudi aggression has also taken a heavy toll on Yemen’s facilities and infrastructure.
Yemeni forces have been engaged in retaliatory attacks against the Saudi forces deployed in the country as well as targets inside Saudi Arabia.
