Clashes west of Taiz city resulted in casualties among Iran-backed Houthi forces, a military source reported on Saturday.
According to the official Yemeni news agency, Saba, Houthi militants attempted to infiltrate Yemeni army positions on the western front of Taiz, triggering intense fighting. The army responded with an ambush, resulting in three Houthi deaths and two injuries, forcing the militants to retreat.
The hours-long clashes followed recent Houthi artillery attacks on army positions and residential neighborhoods near the eastern part of Taiz.
