A suicide bomber killed at least 50 Yemeni soldiers and wounded 70 others at a base in the city of Aden, a local security official said, in another major attack on forces allied to a Saudi-led military campaign.
The attacker blew himself up as the troops were waiting to collect their salaries, the government sources added.
Daesh militants have repeatedly claimed responsibility for deadly attacks on troops in the southern port city, which is under the control of the internationally recognised government in exile in Saudi Arabia.
The kingdom intervened in Yemen's civil war in March 2015 to fight the government's foes in the Iran-allied Houthi movement.
At least 10,000 people have been killed in the conflict which has unleashed a humanitarian crisis on the impoverished country.
Daesh and its rival Al Qaeda have taken advantage of the conflict, carrying out a spate of attacks in Aden. A militant rammed his explosives-laden car into an army recruiting centre in Aden in August, killing 71 people in the deadliest Daesh attack on the city in over a year.
On Monday, Yemeni authorities arrested eight suspected Daesh militants implicated in a spate of attacks targeting security personnel in the city this year.
