18 Yemen rebels killed in clashes near Saudi border
Saudi border guards keep watch along the border with Yemen in the al-Khubah area
Aden - Al Maghrib Today
Eighteen Yemeni rebels have been killed in fighting around the Saudi border over the past 24 hours, Yemeni army officers said on Tuesday.
Clashes flared this week around the Red Sea port of Midi and the nearby Saudi border town of Huthaira, spilling over into the rebel heartland of Saada inland.
The Yemeni army officers said loyalist forces had managed to wrest control of several rebel-held towns straddling the border.
Saudi officials contacted by AFP did not respond to requests for comment.
The rebels control most of northern Yemen, including the Red Sea coast.
But the government controls several pockets near the Saudi border, including the port of Midi.
A Saudi-led coalition intervened in support of the government in 2015.
More than 8,500 civilians have since been killed, with both sides in the conflict being accused of not doing enough to avoid civilian casualties.

To 'eternal style' of late Alaia
Paris - Al Maghrib Today
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opened Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations.
