Four civilians were killed in a landmine explosion planted by the Houthi militias on Friday in village of al-Mabuth in al-Zahari, north of Mocha city in Taiz province.

Local sources said that four people on a motorcycle, all in their 20s, killed in the landmine explosion when they crossed a road passing through one of the farms turned by the Houthi militias into a minefield.

The Houthi militias indiscriminately planted hundreds of mines and improvised explosive devices on roads, farm fields inside residential villages in Mocha rural areas and areas on the West Coast, causing owners to stop planting, and most of the residents move to nearby areas.
