ADEN/SANAA (Reuters) - Southern Yemeni fighters backed by a Saudi-led air coalition seized more territory from Houthi militiamen near Aden on Friday, while three Saudi soldiers were killed when the kingdom came under shelling from Yemen, in an apparent Houthi attack.

The Saudi interior ministry said the three were killed and seven border guards were wounded by the shelling in Dhahran Aljanoub, a governorate in the Saudi border region of Aseer, the official SPA news agency reported.
