SANAA: At least 31 Houthi rebels were killed in airstrikes launched by the Saudi-led coalition in Yemen's oil-rich province of Marib, a military source said on Saturday. "The airstrikes on Friday killed the militants in the desert while they were moving in three groups toward positions of the Yemeni army in the western district of Sirwah," the source told Xinhua.
Meanwhile, Houthi-run al-Masirah TV reported 15 coalition airstrikes on the Houthi positions in Sirwah, without providing further details. The Iran-backed Houthis began in February a major offensive against the Saudi-backed Yemeni government army to capture Marib, which hosts nearly 2 million internally displaced people. IANS
