Fourteen other people were also wounded in the attack.
Saudi war jets have meanwhile also targeted a mosque and a house in the Saqayn district of the northwestern province of Sa’ada.
The attacks come two days after Saudi Arabia bombarded a hospital run by the medical charity group Doctors Without Borders [MSF] in the Heedan district of Sa’ada as well.
Saudi-led warplanes also carried out three airstrikes on Kitaf district in the same province.
Earlier in the day, Riyadh also launched a series of deadly airstrikes on the Sirwah district of Yemen’s Ma’rib province.
Over 2,615 civilians have been killed in the conflict in the last six months, according to the United Nations [UN], and rights groups have criticized the Saudi-led coalition for a series of mass-casualty strikes, including a hospital in northern Yemen on Tuesday. Meanwhile, other organizations put the death toll at much higher.
