A soldier was killed and gunmen were injured as a result of clashes between police forces and an armed gang, on Thursday afternoon, in front of the temporary headquarters of Taiz Governorate, central Yemen.

A security source told (NewsYemen) that gunmen took to the streets in an armed demonstration led by the so-called Issa Al-Ajouz, on Thursday noon, in front of the gate of the Diwan of Taiz Governorate.

According to the source, the gunmen protesting the killing of one of their comrades cut Jamal Street, specifically in front of the governorate headquarters in the oil company, and security forces asked them to leave the place, but they refused, and clashes erupted between the two sides.

The clashes resulted in the death of a soldier named Nazir al-Qadi, who was accompanying the assistant director of security, and other gunmen from the old Issa gang were wounded.

This armed demonstration came in response to the killing of Muhammad al-Khulaidi and the wounding of other militants as a result of a clash with security forces two days ago in the Al-Hasab area, west of Taiz.
