The air defenses of the Yemeni joint forces announced ,Wednesday, the downing of a plane belonging to the Saudi-led coalition over  Saada province


A military source said that the air defenses shot down a reconnaissance aircraft belonging to the coalition while conducting a spy mission over the sky of the district of Manabah border
.

In March 2015, Saudi Arabia and a coalition of its regional allies — mainly the united Arab Emirates and Jordan — 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 later, the war has yielded little to that effect.
