Yemen’s artillery units shelled the positions of the militants in Midi Desert in Hajjah on Monday, inflicting major losses on them, a military official, speaking on the condition of anonymity, told Saba news agency.
Separately, the hideouts of pro-Saudi militants in Karesh region in the southern province of Lahij were heavily pounded.
In addition, the Yemeni army fired mortar rounds against the positons of the militants in the areas of Khabu and Sha'af, al-Khalifatin and al-Aqabah in al-Jawf province in northwestern Yemen.
The attacks were carried out in retaliation for the regime's ongoing airstrikes targeting Yemeni civilians.
Yemen’s defenseless people have been under massive attacks by the coalition led by the Saudi regime for nearly 27 months but Riyadh has reached none of its objectives in Yemen so far.
Since March 2015, Saudi Arabia and some of its Arab allies have been launching 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.
Nearly 10,000 Yemenis, including 4,000 women and children, have lost their lives in the deadly military campaign.
