Iranian-backed Houthi rebels struck a military camp for government forces in southern Yemen on Monday, killing at least 20 soldiers, two Yemeni military officials said.
The rebels fired ballistic missiles on the al-Alam military camp in the southern province of Shabwa in an attack that also wounded at least two dozen of troops, they said.
The military officials with the internationally recognized government of Yemen spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to brief the media.
