Yemeni Army, Popular Forces Kill Scores of Saudi Soldiers in Jizan

Military sources in the Northwestern battlefields confirmed that the Yemeni Army and popular committees stormed the Saudi positions in Jallah in the border province of Jizan, and killed a number of Saudi soldiers.

The sources said that the Yemeni army and popular forces raided the Saudi al-Hijla position in Zahran Asir and killed several Saudi soldiers and destroyed a number of their armored vehicles.

The Yemeni Army and popular committees also launched missile attacks on the Saudi bases of Al-Doud, al-Khobah and al-Qasibat in Saudi Arabia’s Jizan to retaliate the Saudi airstrikes on the residential areas in Yemen.

The sources added that the Yemeni army and volunteer forces also restored security to the Brigade 31 Base of the Yemeni army and returned the al-Qaeda plundered weapons to the retaken garrison.

Saudi Arabia has been bombing Yemen in the last 100 days to bring its ally, fugitive president Mansour Hadi, back to power.

The airstrikes have so far claimed the lives of more than 4,791 civilians, mostly women and children.

According to a recent report by Freedom House Foundation, most of the victims of the deadly Al Saud campaign are civilians, including a large number of women and children.
