Five people were killed on Sunday by two Saudi air raids on Khawlan al-Teyal district of Sana’a province, a security official said.

The raids targeted al-Qanzi intersection in al-Arosh area in the district.

 

In southern Yemen, residents said two women died in an airstrike on the home of a merchant in the Qubaita district, located between the Taiz and Lahij provinces.
Another Yemeni died in Saada province by shelling from the Saudi side of the border, the Al-Masirah television reported.

 

 

Yemen has been under military attacks by Saudi Arabia since late March last year. The Saudi military strikes were launched in a failed effort to undermine the popular Houthi Ansarullah movement and bring the former fugitive president back to power.

More than 9,400 people, among them 2,236 children, have been killed and 16,015 others injured since the start of the aggression. The strikes have also taken a heavy toll on the impoverished country’s facilities and infrastructure, destroying many hospitals, schools, and factories.
