ADEN (Reuters) - An Apache helicopter from a Saudi-led military coalition wounded three Yemeni soldiers when it fired a missile at a military vehicle outside Aden International Airport on Sunday, Yemeni security officials said.

The attack struck troops loyal to the airport’s chief of security, who had refused to accept a government order that he be replaced.

The incident was yet another sign of the inability of Yemen’s internationally recognized government to enforce order. But it was the first time its allies, the coalition of mostly Gulf Arab states, had intervened militarily in power struggles within the Yemeni armed forces.

The Saudi-led coalition has launched thousands of air strikes against the government’s foes, the Iran-allied Houthis, in a campaign to restore President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi to power. It helped wrest Aden from the Houthis, who control the capital, Sanaa, in the summer of 2015.

A coalition spokesman did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment on the incident.

Government mediators were attempting to resolve the dispute through talks, the security officials added.</s>An Apache helicopter from a Saudi-led military coalition wounded three Yemeni soldiers when it fired a missile at a military vehicle outside Aden International Airport on Sunday, Yemeni security officials said.

The victory came after Yemeni forces attacked Saudi mercenaries in the town of Al-Kadhah in the Hudaydah Governorate.

The Saudi-led coalition forces also entered the battle that lasted hours on Sunday morning south of the Kingdom’s Jizan Region.

In addition to seizing Al-Kadhah, the resistance forces also advanced to the al-Maafir District after taking full control of the al-Kadhah Market.

This is while Saudi forces are attacking the Mocha Port area of southwest Yemen. Yemeni army and resistance forces have taken the opportunity to expel the remaining Saudi mercenaries from the northwestern part of the country.

In another development, Saudi regime declared it plans to strike the Hodeidah city in Yemen despite warnings from the UN that the attack could have dire humanitarian consequences for civilian population.

The statement issued by the Saudi-led coalition threatened that civilians in Hodeidah should "remain in their homes and avoid clashes" and that the city would be declared a military zone from 10 a.m. on Monday until further notice.

Hodeidah is the main port city in Yemen currently under the control of Yemeni army. It is considered the main entry point for food and aid cargos to the country that is under a Saudi imposed embargo.

Saudi Arabia has been engaged in the deadly campaign since March 2015 in an attempt to reinstate Yemen’s resigned president, Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi, a staunch ally of Riyadh.

The Saudi war has so far claimed the lives of at least 11,400 Yemenis, and taken a heavy toll on the country’s facilities and infrastructure, destroying many hospitals, schools, and factories.</s>Yemeni security officials say inter-militia fighting has flared up at the airport in the southern coastal city of Aden, with a government-allied helicopter gunship firing on fighters in the area, killing three.

They say Sunday that troops from the presidential guard who are backed by the United Arab Emirates have surrounded the facility, now closed for three days due to the fighting. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they weren't authorized to speak to journalists.

Yemen's second largest city and once its commercial hub, Aden was intended to showcase the return of President Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi, who had been exiled for a period in Saudi Arabia during Yemen's civil war that began in 2014. But forces loyal to him have yet to bring the city stability.
