Saudi Arabian warplanes attacked multiple locations in Yemen as the US-led military aggression against the impoverished country continues. 

Saudi jets carried out four raids in the Tawahi district of the port city of Aden early on Sunday.

Saudi planes also targeted the city of Dhahian in the country’s northwestern Sa’ada province late on Saturday.

Additionally, a school in the western province of Hudaydah was bombed several times earlier in the day. There have been no reports on the number of casualties.

The attacks followed 17 airstrikes against al-Sawad military base south of the Yemeni capital Sana’a, which triggered massive explosions.

Similar attacks were also carried out in southeastern Dhamar province, southern province of Shabwa and north the western Hajjah province.

Saudi Arabia began the US-led military aggression against Yemen on March 26 -- without a UN mandate -- in a bid to undermine the Houthi Ansarullah movement, and to restore power to Yemen’s fugitive former President Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi, who is a close ally of Saudi Arabia.

Over 1,800 people have been killed and 7,330 wounded since March 19 as a result of the conflict in Yemen, according to the United Nations [UN].
