Seven people, including a child, were killed and five others injured as the Saudi war plane missiles hit Razih district of Yemen’s Sa’ada governorate on Monday.
A local source in Sa’ada made clear that the Saudi-led shelling destroyed a house and caused damages to a number of the neighboring houses as well.
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 last 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.
