Aden, Yemen, Aug. 10 (Xinhua) — Yemeni government forces repelled a large-scale offensive by the Houthi group in Yemen's southern Dhale province on Saturday and killed three Houthi militants in a clash, a military official told Xinhua on condition of anonymity.
The Houthis used heavy artillery in an attempt to break through government lines in the Bab Galak area in northern Dali province, he said, triggering intense fighting between the group and government forces.
The fighting lasted for about an hour. In addition to the three deaths, the group also suffered losses in military equipment, the source said, adding that five government soldiers were wounded in the fighting.
The Houthi group has not yet responded to reports of the clash.
Yemen has been in a fragile calm since a UN-brokered ceasefire collapsed in late 2022, with both sides unable to agree on extending or expanding it.
The conflict, which began in late 2014, has killed hundreds of thousands of people and pushed millions more to the brink of starvation, according to UN estimates. –0–
