(MENAFN) The Yemeni army announced Saturday that hundreds of Houthi insurgents were killed or injured in fights in the province of Al-Hudaydah in western Yemen.
A military statement said the clashes broke out as the militants launched an assault on army bases in the Ad-Durayhimi district, south of Al-Hudaydah.
The statement did not provide any specifics of the injuries among the government troops.
There was no word on the argument from the Houthi party.
Last week, the UN called on Yemen's fighting for power factions to avoid the military escalation in Al-Hudaydah and to abide by the truce deal signed in Sweden in 2018.
