Dozens of the Saudi-led coalition,backed by the US, paid fighters were killed ,including a Saudi intelligence officer, and others wounded in the Yemeni army forces’ attack on Thursday on sites of Jawf province.

The army carried out a successful military operation in Sabrin area of Khab Washaf district, killing dozens of the paid fighters, wounding others and destroying dozens military vehicles, the Yemeni army’s spokesman Brigadier General Yahya Sarie said in a statement.

The spokesman said the coalition fighter jets waged a series of strikes on the district to back their paid fighters during the operation.

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.

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.

However, Saudi Arabia relies heavily on the US in its brutal war on Yemen. Washington has deployed a commando force on the Arab kingdom’s border with Yemen to help destroy arms belonging to Yemen’s popular Houthi Ansarullah movement. Washington has also provided logistical support and aerial refueling.
