Local Editor

The death toll from Wednesday’s dawn attack on Arhab area has risen to 41.

According to Yemen’s Arabic-language al-Masirah television network, 35 bodies were recovered from the rubble of an inn in Sana’a province’s Arhab district, which was hit by Saudi air raids.

An estimated 70 people were in the inn prior to the aerial assaults.

Meanwhile, the Saudi air raids, which targeted security centers in the south of Sana’a City, killed two Yemenis and injured over 10 others, according to the report.

Saudi Arabia has been leading a destructive military campaign against Yemen since March 2015 to reinstate former president Abd Rabbu Mansour Hadi and crush the Houthi movement.

The campaign has seriously damaged the country’s infrastructure. Local Yemeni sources have put the death toll from the Saudi war at over 12,000, including many women and children.
