Russia’s Sputnik news agency said on Friday that the Sudanese soldiers had been disembarked from a cargo plane in Yemen’s Aden Province.
Local sources said the forces had been transported in military vehicles from the Aden airport to a special camp for Sudanese soldiers in the Khor Maksar district of the Yemeni province.
Sudan has deployed around 1,000 troops to Yemen to help prop up the Saudi-led coalition.
In May, Sudanese Defense Minister Awad Bin Auf assured the coalition that Khartoum would be prepared to contribute more soldiers upon request.
Sudan has confirmed the death of 21 of its troops since the start of the war in March 2015.
