Army troops and their allies have launched intense attacks in the al-Jubah district of Ma'rib seizing Um Reesh base, a local military source said speaking on condition of anonymity.
The Yemeni forces have reportedly raided the military base from various directions forcing the Saudi-backed militants to withdraw from the area.
Saudi mercenaries withdrew from Umm Reesh base came after the military site was targeted with ballistic missiles and heavy artillery rounds.
Fierce clashes between the two sides continue in several highlands while neither side has managed to make any field progress yet.
