The Yemeni army forces ,Wednesday, foiled an infiltration attempt of the Saudi-led coalition, backed by the US, with air coverage, in the east of Al-Nar mount off Jizan, a military official told YemenExtra.

The coalition , in addition, sustained big losses in lives and equipment.

Others paid fighters, including commanders, were killed and injured on Tuesday after entering a minefield in the east of Al-Nar mountain.

In March 2015, the US -backed –Saudi-led coalition 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 60,000 dead and injured Yemeni people and  prevented the patients from travelling abroad for treatment and blocked the entry of medicine into the war-torn country, the war has yielded little to that effect.
