6 Saudi Soldiers Killed In Retaliatory Attacks By Yemeni Forces
KABUL: (MEP) At least six Saudi forces have been killed in a clash between Yemeni army forces, in retaliation for the Arab kingdom’s deadly aggression against their country, local media said Monday.
Five of Saudi soldiers were killed in Yemen’s Midi region, located in the northwestern province of Hajjah, near the border with the kingdom’s southwestern Jizan province, according to Yemen’s Arabic-language al-Masirah news website.
Earlier in the day, another Saudi soldier was killed in monarchy’s southern province of Najran, where Yemeni forces launched a missile attack on a military base and destroyed a Saudi armored vehicle.
This development comes as Saudi warplanes on Sunday ceaselessly pounded different parts of the war-ravaged country in the Arabian Peninsula. They bombarded a school in the Ba’adan district in the western province of Ibb and inflicted heavy damage to its structure.
They also conducted airstrikes on the Jind district of the southwestern Ta’izz province, where a civilian died and another one was wounded. Aerial aggression also claimed the life of a civilian and injured another one in the Hidan district of the northern Sa’ada province.
Nearly 8,300 people, among them over 2,230 children, have been killed and over 16,000 others injured since the start of the air strikes which have taken a heavy toll on the impoverished country’s infrastructure.
