The Houthi Ansarullah movement launched a retaliatory attack against United Arab Emirate-backed forces in Taiz governorate, Al-Masdar News reported.
The Houthis backed by the popular committees reportedly killed ten UAE-backed Southern Resistance soldiers in the offensive near the city of Mocha. Overnight, the group claimed to have destroyed ten UAE supplied military vehicles in Taiz governorate.
Following regional power Saudi Arabia’s lead, the UAE intervened in the Yemen war in 2015 in a bid to assist the former regime of fugitive President Abd Rabbu Mansour Hadi, but since May 2017 have supported a southern secessionist movement called the Southern Transitional Council.
