Yemeni Troops Gain Territory in Battle against Saudi-Backed Militias

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Yemeni troops continued to make more gains in their fight against militias loyal to the fugitive former president, Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi, in the southern part of the country.

Ansarullah fighters along with the army troops on Sunday made major advances in their military campaign against the pro-Hadi forces in the province of Lahij, leaving at least four militants dead and injured, Yemeni media reported. 

The Yemeni soldiers also managed to push Saudi-backed militants from the strategic areas of Dhubab and Bab el-Mandeb, and they were forced to retreat to some regions in Lahij.

In a separate development in South of the Arab country, the troops pushed deep into the provinces of Dhale and Ta’izz and cleared some areas there from Saudi-backed militants.

The army and allied Popular Committees also destroyed in their mortar attacks a number of armored vehicles near a military base in the southwestern Saudi border city of Najran.

Yemen's defenseless people have been under massive attacks by a coalition led by the Saudi regime for months.

On March 26, Saudi Arabia and some of its Arab allies, including the UAE, began to launch deadly airstrikes against the Houthi Ansarullah movement in an attempt to restore power to the fugitive former President Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi, a close ally of Riyadh.

More than 5400 people, many of them children and women, have been killed in the Saudi-led aggression against the Arab country so far.
