Saudi military aircraft have hit more targets in Yemen, airdropping further arms to militants as the Riyadh regime continues its military operation against Yemen.

The Saudi warplanes bombarded positions of Houthi Ansarullah movement fighters in Yemen’s southern city of Aden on Saturday on the 10th day of air campaign against the country. According to a military source, at least 13 Houthi fighters were killed in the attack.

The Saudi jets also airdropped by parachute wooden crates of weapons and ammunition, including rifles, to militants fighting in Yemen for the second time.

On Friday, Saudi jets airdropped a number of wooden boxes containing various firearms and ammunition in Aden, Arabic-language online newspaper, Aden al-Ghad, reported.

The report, citing an unnamed local military official, added that the militants have gained access to the munitions, noting that sophisticated communications equipment and advanced combat medical kits are also among the items airdropped.
