Saree added that the scale of the attacks had caught the Saudi side by surprise, saying 550 Saudi-backed fighters were killed and over 1,200 were injured while 90 were also detained in Ma’rib. The spokesman said leaders of the Daesh and al-Qaeda terrorist groups were among those killed.
In the operation, he noted, 16 armored vehicles and personnel carriers and 180 types of the enemy’s weapons were destroyedin Ma’rib. Saree announced the destruction of five weapons depots and the capture of dozens of enemy vehicles.
Saudi Arabia, backed by the United States and regional allies, launched the war on Yemen in March 2015, with the goal of bringing the Hadi government back to power and crushing Ansarullah.
The war has left hundreds of thousands of Yemenis dead, and displaced millions more. It has also destroyed Yemen’s infrastructure and spread famine and infectious diseases.
Yemeni armed forces and the Popular Committees have grown steadily in strength against the Saudi-led invaders, and left Riyadh and its allies bogged down in the country.
