Airstrikes near Yemen's capital Sanaa killed at least 33 people and injured 39, according to Houthi officials. The attacks targeted residential areas, with casualties including women and children. A separate airstrike on Saturday killed at least 25 people and wounded 30 others, also in Sanaa. Another report claims 22 people were killed and 30 injured in a similar attack.
The Houthi militia has accused Saudi Arabia of conducting the airstrikes, citing damage to civilian infrastructure. Saudi air defenses intercepted a ballistic missile launched by the Houthi group targeting the Eastern Province, according to Saudi coalition reports. The incident highlights ongoing tensions between the Houthi rebels and the Saudi-led coalition.
The conflict in Yemen has escalated with frequent airstrikes and missile attacks. The Houthi rebels, backed by Iran, have been fighting against the Saudi-led coalition since 2015. Recent attacks have targeted both military and civilian areas, increasing humanitarian concerns. The situation remains volatile, with both sides blaming each other for escalating violence.
