At least 70 people have been killed and dozens injured in two days of fighting between rebels and forces loyal to the internationally recognized government.
The security officials yesterday said government-allied forces have taken control of several areas previously controlled by the rebels, known as the Houthis, between the central provinces of Marib and Shabwa.
The government-allied forces said, 22 rebels were killed and 25 were injured. They said, the clashes were ongoing. It was unclear how many of the remaining casualties were Houthi fighters and how many were civilians.
A truce between the warring parties that began April 10 has largely held despite violations by both sides.
