Local Editor

The Saudi aggression’s war jets launched Wednesday a range of raids on scattered areas in the city of Taiz, a local official said.

The warplanes waged three raids on Birbasha neighborhood to the west of Taiz city, a fourth one on the 50th Street northwest of the city and a fifth one targeted Ghurab area, the official explained.

The air raids caused large damages to tens of houses and private and public facilities and roads. The fighter jets continued flying intensively in the sky of the province for several hours.

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 10,000 people, among them more than 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.
