Yemeni army thwarts Houthi attempt to plant mines on coast of Midi

Al Arabiya.net, 22 January 2018 – The Yemeni army killed five Houthi gunmen and arrested another while they were trying to plant naval mines on the coast of Midi, adjacent to the Red Sea, in the Hajjah Governorate, West of Yemen.


A military source said Yemeni soldiers on four boats clashed on Sunday with Houthis on three other boats while they were trying to plant the landmines. They burnt one of the latter’s boats, seized the other while the third fled, he added.


Work is underway to remove the mines as soon as possible, the source added.
