Yemen’s Ansarullah revolutionaries have taken control of At-Tuwal heights in the Jizan region of southwestern Saudi Arabia on Thursday.
According to Yemen’s al-Masirah Arabic TV channel, Ansarullah fighters and Yemeni army troops entered the mountainous area near the border with Yemen and destroyed several Saudi military vehicles as well as ammunition on Thursday.
Saudi troops were forced to withdraw from the region, the report said.
This came hours after at least 18 Saudi soldiers have been killed in a rocket attack carried out by Yemeni tribes on border military bases in the border cities of Najran and Dhahran al-Janub in southern Saudi Arabia.
Saudi officials have not yet commented on the latest retaliatory attacks.
