| Yemen’s national army and resistance fighters killed 12 Houthi rebels and captured five others during heavy fighting in the Southwestern Al Dale governorate. The fighters also captured Yaees village in the governorate after clashes with the Iranian-backed coup insurgents on Saturday, Yemen’s ‘Masdar Online’ said. It quoted resistance sources as saying the 12 were killed during fighting outside the village following an offensive launched by the army and resistance. “Five rebels were captured while five resistance men fell as martyrs. “Our men succeeded in seizing the village,” a source said. The report said a resistance unit attacked the house of Houthi field commander Ahmed Mutahar in the village, adding that heavy clashes were raging late Saturday in the area. In other areas, the army and resistance units kept up the pressure on the Houthis and their allies in Taiz and other areas as the coalition continued their raids on rebel targets. |
