DUBAI: Several Houthi militants, including a commander, were killed and others wounded in heavy clashes with the Yemeni army in the southern city of Damt, Saudi-owned Al Arabiya News Channel reported.

The number of casualties exceeded 20, the report explained, although it did not detail how many were dead.

Yemeni sources revealed that the Arab coalition-backed Yemeni forces foiled two Houthi attempts at attacking troops in Al-Hariwa mountains and in Al-Haqab village.

Eyewitnesses reported that heavy clashes continued between the two fronts on Sunday in surrounding villages.
