Dozens of Mercenaries Killed in Nehm

Local Editor

Dozens of Saudi-paid mercenaries were killed and injured when the Yemeni army and popular forces waged an attack on several sites in Nehm area of Marib province, an official told the state-run news agency Saba on Tuesday.

The mercenaries came under fire in Al Hawal village.

Moreover, the national forces bombed two military vehicles in the operation.

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 12,000 people have been killed and over 19,343 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.
