The country's defense ministry has announced on Saturday, the Yemeni army troops backed by popular forces have surrounded a large number of Saudi and UAE forces in Jawf province, Eastern Yemen.
Hundreds of Saudi and Emirati military men are now surrounded by the Yemeni forces in the town of al-Jabal al-Aswad in al-Jawf province.


The Yemeni forces captured 130 military troops from the Saudi-led coalition, including at least 39 Emirati soldiers and 9 officers during a series of clashes in Jawf province yesterday.




�"Several Yemeni civilians have lost their lives over the past three days as Saudi warplanes continue to pound areas across Yemen."

On Wednesday, leader of Yemen�s Ansarullah movement Abdul-Malik al-Houthi lashed out at Saudi Arabia, saying the kingdom�s policies are the same as those of the US and Israel, �which seek to crush the Muslim Ummah without paying any price.�


On March 26, Saudi Arabia started deadly military aggression against Yemen in a bid to undermine the Houthi Ansarullah movement and restore power to Hadi, a staunch ally of Riyadh.


More than 7,500 people have been killed and over 14,000 others injured since March. The strikes have also taken a heavy toll on the impoverished country�s facilities and infrastructure, destroying many hospitals, schools, and factories.


The UN has repeatedly voiced concern over the rising number of civilian casualties in the Saudi military aggression against Yemen, FNA reported.
