Over 100 people were killed in clashes in Yemen's Taiz city as the country’s security forces broke a rebel siege of the city. It is reported that the security forces on Friday night beat the Shia Houthi rebels and their allies loyal to former president Ali Abdullah Saleh and then broke the rebel siege on southwestern areas of Taiz. The fight continued for three days. In total, more than 100 fighters were killed and they belonged to both the sides, but most of them were Houthi rebels who were hit by Saudi-led air strikes.
