The National reported that they had been operating in the Safir area of Marib province, about 250km (150 miles) east of the capital Sanaa.

"It is understood they were killed when a fire broke out at dawn today in an ammunition store for the 107 Brigade, which caused violent explosions, killing Emirati and Yemeni soldiers," it said.

Yemeni military sources told the AFP news agency that there had been an accident, but Houthis insisted that their rocket fire was responsible.

The explosions killed dozens of Emirati and Yemeni soldiers and destroyed a number of Apache attack helicopters and vehicles, the Houthis said.
