Saudi airstrikes kill 5 Yemenis, injure 40 in capital Sana’a
At least five people have been killed and over 40 injured in the latest Saudi airstrikes on the war-torn country of Yemen.
The attacks, which targeted an area south of the capital city of Sana’a, took place early on Saturday.
No further details were released about the casualties of the airstrikes.
Saudi warplanes also pounded the presidential palace in Sana’a. On Friday, Saudi airstrikes killed more than 20 in Sa’ada province.
The violent Saudi campaign started without a UN mandate on March 26 in a bid to undermine the Houthi Ansarullah movement, which currently controls Sana’a and some major provinces, and to restore power to Yemen’s fugitive former president, Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi, a staunch ally of Riyadh.
At least 2,300 people have been killed and 7,330 others wounded due to the conflict in the impoverished Arab country since March 19, according to the United Nations.
