Yemeni army spokesman vows to deter coalition, stop its arrogance

SANAA, April 16 (YPA) – The Yemeni army spokesman Brigadier General Yahya Sarie on Thursday said that the armed forces would take appropriate measures to defend the Yemeni people and deter the dangerous escalation of Saudi-led coalition against Yemen.

Sarie affirmed in a statement that “the coalition is clearly continuing to escalate through infiltration attempts, attacks and air strikes since last Thursday until today.”

The enemy’s attacks during the eight days amounted to more than 32 offensive operations and infiltration attempts distributed into the provinces of Marib, Jawf, Bayda and Taiz and the border fronts, he added.

During the same period, the coalition airstrikes amounted to 230 air strikes, which were distributed in the provinces of Sanaa, Amran, Jawf, Marib, Bayda, Saada, and Hodeidah, according to the spokesman.
