Report: Yemeni Army Kills at Least 156 Houthi Fighters in Northern Hajjah Province

At least 156 Houthi fighters were killed in battles with the Yemeni government army since Thursday in Yemen’s northern province of Hajjah, military sources said. Battles took place in Harad city near the Saudi border and the adjacent Abs district, China’s state-run Xinhua News Agency reported. “A total of 106 militants were killed on Friday in a battle with the government armed forces in Harad,” a source in Harad told Xinhua. The source added that the Saudi-led coalition backing the Yemeni government bombed dozens of Houthi militia vehicles in airstrikes and shot down 10 bomb-laden drones. Days earlier, government military sources said the Houthi militia drove the government army out of the city, killing more than 60 soldiers and wounding 140.
