An initial toll estimated that eight people were killed, including women and children, by a Saudi-led coalition bombing on Ibb city and its neighborhoods in Yemen.
The Saudi air jets launched 14 air raids on a number of places and public and private facilities as a part of destroying the country’s infrastructure, a security official said.
The Saudi-led aggression also targeted a house belonging to one of the citizens in Rabi Mountain in Ibb, killing all the family members.
A Saudi-led coalition backed by the United States has been carrying out a military aggression on Yemen by launching airstrikes against the country since March 26. The airstrikes have not been authorized by the United Nations [UN].
The ’civilian’ death toll in Yemen has risen to at least 1,916, with another 4,186 civilians wounded since the escalation of the conflict in March, the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights [OHCHR] reported recently this month.
The US-led Saudi aggression began in a bid to undermine the Houthi Ansarullah movement and restore power to the country’s fugitive former Yemeni president, Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi, a close ally of Saudi Arabia.
