Yemeni military sources confirmed the death of more than 70, injury of more than 100 Saudi aggression mercenaries as units of the Yemeni army and Popular Committees fired Tochka-type ballistic missile at an assembly point of their forces at Mass military camp in al-Jawf.

The rocket attack caused fire at the camp in which ambulance cabs rushed to the scene, then carried dozens of those killed and injured to the al-Hazm Hospital.

Yemen has been since March 26, 2015 under brutal aggression by Saudi-led coalition. Thousands have been martyred and injured since the beginning of the attacks, with the vast majority of them are civilians.

Riyadh launched the attack on Yemen in a bid to restore power to fugitive president Abed Rabboh Mansour Hadi, Saudi Arabia’s close ally.

However, Yemeni army, backed by the committees has been engaged in battles with Saudi-led mercenaries and Hadi’s militias in several areas across the country.
