Earlier, Houthi rebels announced that its forces had taken control over two districts in the central Yemeni province of Al Bayda.
At least 30 were killed and 60 wounded after Houthi forces struck a military base in Yemen’s Lahj province, medical sources have said.
According to other reports, at least seven Yemeni soldiers were killed and more than 50 others wounded in an attack with missiles and drones targeting a government military base.
The Houthi group has not yet claimed responsibility for the attack
Yemen has been gripped by an internal conflict between the government forces and the Shia Houthi movement for over six years. Since 2015, the Saudi-led coalition fighting on the government’s side has been conducting air, land, and sea operations against the rebels, who control the capital of Sana’a and large areas in Yemen’s north and west. The Houthis often retaliate by firing projectiles and bomber drones at the Saudi territory.
The United Nations describes Yemen as “the world’s worst humanitarian crisis,” with 20.7 million people in need of protection or humanitarian assistance.
