2 Saudi Soldiers killed in Yemen’s Retaliatory Attack

Two Saudi soldiers were killed after Yemeni troops launched a retaliatory attack on Saudi Arabia’s Asir border region.

According to Saudi media reports, the Yemeni forces fired mortar rounds into Asir border town late on Monday, leaving 2 guards dead and several vehicles destroyed.

In a separate incident, the Yemeni army shelled Saudi military bases near Jizan and destroyed 4 vehicles.

Saudi Arabia has been bombing Yemen in the last 76 days to bring its ally, fugitive president Mansour Hadi, back to power.

The airstrikes have so far claimed the lives of more than 4,430 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.
