More that 20 elements of the Houthi coup militia were killed while attempting to creep into the army-controlled sites in the warfront of Serwah, south of Marib province, on Thursday.

“Houthi militia tried desperately to infiltrate the army’s positions in Serwah twice on Thursday, but failed and confronted, Brigadier Abdullelah Ali, a military field leader, told September Net.

He said at least 20 militiamen were killed and others injured in the hour-long battles, adding the army troops recovered munitions and arms from the Houthi insurgents.

“Many of the bodies of the killed rebels still dispersed at the plains and mountains of Serwah.”

The army also bombarded locations and gatherings of the militia in the same front with heavy artillery, inflicting them major losses in bodies and equipment, according to the commander.
