Yemeni popular committees captured 11 coalition troops in an operation in Ma’rib province east of Sana’a, the capital city.

Al Mayadeen TV reported on Monday that 11 soldiers from Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates were captured in an operation in Ma’rib.

Yemeni forces in recent weeks have given crushing responses to the five-month-long aggression of the Saudi-led coalition on the impoverished Arab country.

Back on Saturday, Yemeni forces seized control of four Saudi military bases in the southwestern province of Dhahran al-Janub.

Fighters of the Houthi Ansarullah movement, backed by allied forces of the army, took control of the strategically important bases in the Saudi province, the southwestern region of Asir.

Separately, Ansarullah fighters inflicted heavy losses on Saudi forces after they targeted military installations in the regions of al-Hejlah and Jabal al-Doud in Jizan Province of southern Saudi Arabia.

Earlier this month, Yemen’s army also managed to kill tens of foreign troopers in a retaliatory missile attack on the Saudi-led coalition’s arms depot in Ma’rib, sources said.

Military sources of Yemen declared at the time that officers and soldiers from Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Bahrain, and other countries were among those killed in the attack.

Saudi Arabia and some of its Arab allies, including the UAE, Kuwait, Qatar and Bahrain, began on March 26 to launch deadly airstrikes against the Houthi Ansarullah movement in an attempt to restore power to the fugitive former President Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi, a close ally of Riyadh.

More than 4500 people, many of them children and women, have been killed in the Saudi-led aggression against the Arab country so far; Tasnimnews Agency reported.
