According to a Tuesday report by Yemens official Saba Net news agency, Yemeni forces also seized a military base used by Saudi forces in Taizz and killed a senior Saudi commander.
Saudi troops later tried to take back the base; however, their struggle resulted in failure and the destruction of a number of their vehicles, the report said.
Ansarullah fighters also launched missile attacks on a base in Saudi Arabias southwestern border region of Jizan.
According to the report, the Yemeni army also launched rocket attacks on Saudi military bases in Zahran in the Asir border region of Saudi Arabia. Furthermore, Yemeni Popular Committees fired a number of missiles at Saudi bases in the al-Khobe district of Jizan.

Saudi artillery also fired shells toward different parts of the Kitaf region in Saada.
Yemens al-Masirah television reported that two civilians were killed after Saudi warplanes bombarded the Razih district in Saada.
Yemen has been witnessing ceaseless attacks by Saudi Arabia since March 26. The military strikes are supposedly meant to undermine the Ansarullah movement and bring fugitive former Yemeni president, Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi, back to power.
The Saudi aggression has reportedly claimed the lives of more than 7,100 people and injured nearly 14,000 others. The strikes have also taken a heavy toll on the impoverished countrys facilities and infrastructure, destroying many hospitals, schools, and factories.
