Twelve Houthis died on Sunday when Saudi ground forces fired missiles against the militia when the rebels tried to infiltrate into the Kingdom through Abu Al-Radif checkpoint in Al-Harth.

Meanwhile, a boat carrying 460 tons of Emirati relief aid docked Sunday in the port city of Aden, as Saudi-led air raids against Shiite rebels continued across the country.

The shipment, including medical and food supplies, is the second from the UAE, which delivered last week 1,200 tons of relief aid, said local aid coordinator Ali Al-Bikri.

Another ship carrying 400 tons of diesel also arrived on Friday, said Bikri, who was appointed by Yemen’s government-in-exile.
