Two Yemeni citizens were killed today and another was injured by the Saudi-led coalition forces in the bordering Manbah and Shada districts of Saada Province.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent in northern Yemen reported that one man was martyred and a woman was injured by the Saudi-led coalition fire in Manbah.

The Yemeni channel Al-Masirah also reported the martyrdom of another citizen by Saudi artillery shelling targeting the bordering district of Shada in Saada, noting that the Saudi coalition had shelled several areas within the Shada district using artillery shells today.

Yesterday, it was reported that three Yemeni civilians and an African migrant were targetted by Saudi forces in Manbah and that Saudi artillery shelled several locations in the Baqim district in Saada.

Earlier this week, two Bahraini soldiers were killed along the border between Yemen and Saudi Arabia.

Bahrain's military, in its statement, described the incident as an act of terror carried out by "attack drones" launched by Ansar Allah in an undisclosed location in southern Saudi Arabia.

A number of open-source intelligence (OSINT) bloggers reported that the soldiers were operating an artillery battery near the borders and were firing into Yemeni territories and villages daily.
