The Yemeni armed forces and popular committees, mostly from the Houthi militants, are continuing missile attacks on Saudi military posts and other targets in cities on the border between the two countries, Houthis sources said on Sunday.
The attacks are in response to ongoing Saudi-led airstrikes on the Yemeni people in the cities of Saada and Hajjah, they said, while revealing that more than 56 civilians were killed and more than 89 others injured in airstrikes in the two cities during the past 24 hours.
Saudi media said military reinforcements and advanced heavy weapons have been deployed to the border with Yemen.
In the past two days, the Saudi army repelled attacks by the forces loyal to the former president Saleh and shot down a scud missile launched from Saada, the Houthi stronghold.
Spokesperson for the Arab coalition which launched a military operation against the Houthis in late March, Ahmed Asiri also told Saudi media that his country is evaluating its preparations after the latest Houthi attacks.
Separately, the spokesperson for the Anasarullah, the Houthi group, Mohammed Abdulsalam told Houthi-run media Sunday they have agreed to go to Geneva talks without conditions. The talks will be sponsored by the UN on June 14.
Our delegation which arrived in Oman lately met with the UN envoy to Yemen Ismail Ould Cheikh and discussed with him preparations for the talks.
"We told Cheikh about our agreement to the call of the UN Secretary General for the talks," he said.
Moreover, a Houthi delegation arrived in Moscow today to meet with Russian officials within international efforts to solve the crisis in Yemen, he said.
