RNA - The strikes hit two locations in Hodeida province, the sources said. Around 20 other people troops were also wounded, the Daily Star reported.

The Saudi-led coalition has begun intervention in Yemen sine March 2015 in an attempt to reinstate the former President Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi.

But despite its massively superior firepower, the popular committees and their allies still control the capital Sana'a and much of the Central and Northern highlands as well as the Red Sea coast.
