On Saturday, the Iranian Foreign Ministry denied the killing of an Iranian military advisor in the ranks of the Houthi militia, in Yemen.
Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh was quoted by IRNA as saying that "there is no Iranian military advisor in Yemen, until he is killed."
The Iranian official claimed that the recent statements of the Yemeni Minister of Information, Muammar Al-Eryani, regarding the killing of an Iranian expert, in the battles of Marib, were "false," as he described it.
On Saturday, Information Minister Muammar Al-Eryani announced, in tweets on Twitter, that the air strikes launched by the Saudi-led coalition had killed an Iranian military expert and nine of his aides in the Serwah front in Ma'rib Governorate, eastern Yemen.
