MOSCOW (Sputnik) — The commander, Taha Mahtouri, was killed in a strike on Houthi positions in the Hajjah governorate, the Al Arabiya broadcaster reported.
Yemen's conflict is between the government headed by Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi and the Ansar Allah movement, also known as the Houthis, which is the country’s main opposition force currently in control of the capital Sanaa and most of the country's north.
Since March 2015, the Saudi Arabian-led coalition comprising mostly Arab Persian Gulf countries have been carrying out airstrikes against the Houthis at Hadi's request.
