Yemeni Army announced it has captured a number of Saudi soldiers during border clashes, Al-Alam TV reports.

Army spokesman Sharaf Luqman made the announcement on Friday, saying the Saudi forces were captured in the course of military confrontation along Yemen-Saudi border.

This is the first such announcement by the Yemen’s Army since the beginning of the Saudi aggression against the impoverished country.

Saudi Arabia has, meanwhile, intensified its aerial bombardment of different Yemeni cities ahead of the talks to take place in Geneva, Switzerland among Yemen's political factions aimed at resolving the crisis in Yemen.

The Riyadh regime launched military aggression against Yemen on March 26. Saudi Arabia is trying to undermine the Ansarullah revolutionaries of the Houthi movement, now in control of the capital city of Sana’a and several major provinces, and bring back to power Yemen’s fugitive former president, Abd Rabbu Mansur Hadi.

The Yemenis are due to hold a demonstration on Friday against Riyadh's crimes against the civilians in Yemen.
