At least five Emirati soldiers were killed when a military base run by the United Arab Emirates (UAE) came under attack in Yemen’s southern province of Abyan, a report says.

Turkey’s official Anadolu news agency, citing an unnamed local source, reported on Friday that the attack was carried out after unknown gunmen started firing at the base with light weapons and RPGs, leaving another Emirati trooper wounded.

The base, located in the vicinity of Abyan city, is run by Emirati servicemen and armed militia loyal to Yemen’s former President Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi, the source said, adding that the attack could likely be carried out by militants of the al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) Takfiri terrorist group.

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 60,000 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.

More than 2,200 others have died of cholera, and the crisis has triggered what the United Nations has described as the world’s worst humanitarian disaster.
