The US-backed Saudi-led coalition on Monday fired artillery and missile shells at Saada province, an official told Yemen Press Agency.
The shelling targeted residential areas of Monabeh district, causing heavy damage to civilians’ properties.
Saudi Arabia and a number of its regional allies launched a devastating military campaign against Yemen in March 2015, with the aim of bringing the regime of former president Abd Rabbu Mansur Hadi back to power and crushing the country’s Houthi Ansarullah movement.
Some 16,000 Yemenis have been killed and thousands more injured since the onset of the Saudi-led aggression.
More than 2,200 others have died of cholera, and the crisis has triggered what the United Nations has described as the world's worst humanitarian disaster.
