The number of dead and wounded of the U.S backed Saudi-led coalition’s paid fighters from Shabwa province, who were killed in clashes with the Yemeni army forces in Nida Front in the province of Baidah, has reached 250 dead and 360 wounded since the beginning of the year 2018 so far.

The sources confirmed that 45 paid fighters were killed and 47 others from Shabwa province were injured in clashes with the Yemeni army forces in the front of Nita in the province of al-Baida last July.

In March 2015, the US backed –Saudi-led coalition started  a war against Yemen with the declared aim of crushing the Houthi Ansarullah movement, who had taken over from the staunch Riyadh ally and fugitive former president Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi, while also seeking to secure the Saudi border with its southern neighbor. Three years and over 600,000 dead and injured Yemeni people and  prevented the patients from travelling abroad for treatment and blocked the entry of medicine into the war-torn country, the war has yielded little to that effect.

Despite the coalition claims that it is bombing the positions of the Ansarullah fighters, Saudi bombers are flattening residential areas and civilian infrastructures.

A UN panel has compiled a detailed report of civilian casualties caused by the Saudi military and its allies during their war against Yemen, saying the Riyadh-led coalition has used precision-guided munitions in its raids on civilian targets.
