Saudi warplanes launched on Tuesday several raids on the late Ali Mohsen al-Muraisi’s stadium in al-Thawra sports city in the capital Sana’a.
An official at the ministry of Youths and Sports said the aggression targeted the stadium with five rockets. However, one of the rockets did not explode.
The warplanes targeted a VIP guests gate and masses gates, the official said, adding that the General Yemeni Football Union building and adjacent buildings were damaged.
It is worth mentioning that the losses of the sports and youth facilities, which were targeted by the Saudi aggression, amount to more than 110 billion Y.R.
Saudi Arabia began its deadly campaign against Yemen in late March 2015. The strikes were meant to undermine the Houthi Ansarullah movement and restore power to fugitive former president Abd Rabbu Mansour Hadi.
About 10,000 people have been killed and over 16,000 injured since Riyadh launched the airstrikes. The Saudi aggression has also taken a heavy toll on Yemen’s facilities and infrastructure.
