Yemen's Houthi group has claimed that its forces crossed the border into neighbouring Saudi Arabia, which leads a military coalition against them, and took control of more than 20 positions.
The spokesman said that more than 200 personnel affiliated with the Saudi-UAE-led military coalition battling the Houthis had been killed or wounded, while many others were captured along with large quantities of military equipment, Aljazeera reports.
"We have extensive video footage of the operation which will be broadcast later," Sarei was quoted as saying.
His claims could not be independently verified. There was no immediate comment from Saudi Arabia or the military coalition.
