Hays, Newsyemen, private:

Houthi militias have shelled with a number of artillery and rocket-propelled grenades and with automatic weapons towards residential neighborhoods in the center of the city of Hays, south of Al-Hodeidah, and a citizen was wounded by gunfire.

According to local sources, the militia launched a mortar and RPG bombardment and fell near the residential neighborhoods located on the outskirts of the city center and opened machine-gun fire towards the homes.

The sources confirmed that the residential neighborhoods in the city center were riddled with bullets and the 70-year-old Ali Abd Saleh Saleh Baysh Al-Taweel was injured in the left thigh with a Houthi-type pica bullet.

The sources pointed out that the injured man was in his house located in Al-Barha neighborhood, and after he was injured, he was immediately treated to the medical point of the 11th Brigade to receive first aid.

The shelling caused panic and fear among the citizens in their homes due to the Houthi shelling that affected their homes.

The revenge for the shelling by the militias towards the residents comes after its failed attack and the crushing defeat it received at the hands of the brigades of the 7th Brigade, the Giants stationed in the eastern side of the Hays front.

The militia suffered a heavy toll from the losses during a fierce night battle in the city of Hodeidah and the crushing of simultaneous offensive attempts east and northeast of the city
