Saudi commander killed in Yemeni west coast

TEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) - UAE military sources announced that a Saudi-affiliated commander of the regime's mercenaries were killed in Yemen's west coast, al-Alam reported.

Yemen's Missile-drone unit carried out a series of attacks Tuesday night against the Saudi-led coalition forces in the west coast.

The Saudi regime's positions were targeted with a high leve of accuracy, a yemeni military official told al-Masirah.

Saudi Arabia and its allies launched the war on Yemen in March 2015 to reinstall the former Saudi-backed Hadi regime.

The Yemeni Ministry of Human Rights announced in a statement on March 25 that the war had left 600,000 civilians dead and injured until then. The war and an accompanying blockade have also caused famine across Yemen.

The Houthi movement, which is a significant aid to the Yemeni army in defending the country against the invading forces, has been running state affairs in the absence of an effective administration during the past three years.

The Saudi aggression has also taken a heavy toll on the country's facilities and infrastructure, destroying many hospitals, schools, and factories.

Since 2016, the impoverished nation has also been grappling with a deadly cholera outbreak, which has already killed thousands of people.

Several Western countries, the US and the UK in particular, are accused of being complicit in the aggression as they supply the Riyadh regime with advanced weapons and military equipment as well as logistical and intelligence assistance.
