"The Sudanese and Somalian mercenaries fight against the Yemeni forces in lieu of a meager salary of only $200 per month," an arrested Saudi military soldier told FNA's correspondent in Sana'a on Monday.
He noted that most of the foreign fighters directly take orders from Saudi military commanders in Southern Yemen.
The Saudi soldier reiterated that a majority of foreign militants fighting against the Yemeni forces are from Somalia and Sudan.
"Earlier today, security sources revealed that the Yemeni forces have killed a sum of 300 foreign troops in their Friday attack on al-Safer military base in Eastern Yemen, FNA reported."
Meantime, a Yemeni revolutionary commander disclosed that a large number of foreign mercenaries participating in the Saudi-led aggression against Yemen have been apprehended in fierce clashes in Ma'arib province.
He noted that the Saudi and Emirati forces were trying to take back the regions that they had lost in Ma'arib province, but they failed to do so and sustained heavy losses.
"Those captured are from different nationalities and serve the UAE army," the commander said.
"The Arab countries have recruited mercenary forces from different countries, including Sudan, Somalia and Nigeria after they lost a large number of their troops in clashes with the Yemeni forces," the commander added.

The Yemeni sources noted that high death toll of the foreign troops was the result of the ballistic missiles blast caused by Yemeni missile attack.
A day later on Sunday, the Yemeni army and popular forces destroyed a big arms depot of the Saudi-led forces in the province of Jizan, Southern Saudi Arabia.
The Yemeni army and Ansarullah fighters attacked the Saudi weapons cache in al-Mosfeq region in Jizan province.
