A high-ranking military commander loyal to the Saudi-led coalition forces was killed along with dozens of officers and recruits in a series of explosions in a coalition camp in northern Ma’rib and eastern Jawf province at dawn on Wednesday.
Lieutenant Colonel Suhaib al-Salahi, deputy chief of operations of the so-called Al-Majd Brigade Border Guard of the coalition forces, was killed along with dozens of coalition officers and recruits as a result of huge explosions that hit a newly developed military site of the coalition forces in the Al-Khanjar desert, local sources told Yemen Press Agency.
The sources indicated that the explosions were caused by an unknown missile attack, confirming the coalition forces are reticent about revealing the nature of the explosions and the number of dead and wounded.
So far, no party has claimed responsibility for the attack.
