Scores of Houthi field commanders were killed during confrontations with National Resistance Forces in Yemen’s Red Sea Coast front, a Gulf-based news agency reported on Saturday.
Thousands of Yemenis have been reporting to voluntary military service and recruitment offices across Yemeni governorates to join the Yemeni National Resistance Forces under the leadership of Staff Brigadier-General Tarek Mohammad Abdullah Saleh.
The development invigorates the military efforts being made against the Iran-backed Houthi militias on Yemen’s Red Sea Coast.
