Saudi aggression warplanes launched at least 20 air strikes on civilian targets in the capital Sana’a and its suburbs over the past 24 hours, officials said on Monday.
Eight raids on the War College and its surrounding areas in Al-Rotha area in Bani Al-Hareth district north of the capital, two further raids struck Al-Dailmi air base.
One air strike targeted Bani Matar district and another hit the nearby Al-Sobaha area in the western suburb of Sana’a.
Two air raids hit Dhulaa region of Hamdan district west of the capital, two strikes hit Masoud region in Sanhan district in the southeast outskirts of Sanaa, another two struck Jahlan area and two more strikes targeted Al-madfon region in Nihm district in the northeastern suburb of Sana’a province.
The strikes caused large damage to residential houses, private and public properties, and farms.
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.
