Yemen troops kill Houthis in Taiz

Thirteen Houthis were killed and others wounded in clashes with the Yemeni army in Taiz province, state news agency SPA reported on Tuesday.
The Yemeni army seized weapons left by the Houthis before they escaped, the spokesperson of the Taiz axis military command Colonel Abdelbaset Al-Bahr said.
Earlier this month, the Yemeni forces regained control of areas in Al-Jawf province, northwest of the war-torn country, after clashes with the Iran-backed Houthi militia.
