The Yemeni army has regained control of areas in Al-Dhale province, state news agency SPA reported on Sunday.

The armed forces targeted Houthi positions, which left 14 dead, a Yemeni military source said.

Meanwhile, the Yemeni Army killed 18 Houthis and wounded 27 in clashes with the Iranian-backed militia in Saada on Saturday.

The clashes broke out when Houthi militants tried to sneak into areas they lost control the past two months, according to Yemen's military source “SeptemberNet.”

The Yemeni army forced the militants to flee and targeted Houthi reinforcements.

Earlier on Saturday, the army killed 17 Houthis and wounded 21 others including two commanders at an ambush in Al-Dhale, southern Yemen, a military source said.
