The Yemeni army and popular forces have continued their advances in Western Yemen including firing Qaher-I ballistic missile and destroying the Saudi military positions in Al-Jawf province as well as capturing Saudi Arabia's strategic military base near Bab Al-Mandeb.

The Yemeni army and popular forces continued their advances in Western Yemen, and seized a strategic military base near Bab al Mandeb Strait from the Saudi-led troops.

Saudi Arabia's Al-Shabaka military base is now in control of the Yemeni army and popular forces.

Al-Shabaka military base overlooks Bab al-Mandeb Strait which connects the Red Sea to the Gulf of Aden.

In a relevant development on Tuesday, the Yemeni army and popular forces destroyed the Saudi military positions in Al-Jawf province with their Qaher-I ballistic missile, killing tens of the kingdom's forces.

The Qaher-I missile hit the military positions of the Saudi forces in Wadi al-Rahaneh region in al-Jawf province, destroying their military hardware and equipment.

Early reports indicate large casualties on the Saudi forces in the missile attack. The Saudi army and its coalition members have lost, at least, over a hundred troops each time they have come under a ballistic missile attack by Yemen.

The Saudi-led forces' armored vehicles were destroyed during the Yemeni missile attack; ABNA24 reported.
