DUBAI: More than six Houthis were killed and 10 wounded in shelling carried out by the Yemeni army in northern Saada, Yemen’s national military website SeptemberNet reported on Tuesday.

The clashes erupted after the militia attempted to sneak into liberated positions in Saada’s Razeh district, Artillery Commander Adnan Jassar told SeptemberNet.

Earlier this month, multiple Houthis were killed and others wounded in air strikes launched by the Arab coalition in Hajjah province.
