Saana, July 4, (Euronews-RHC), – At least 16 people have died in Saudi-led airstrikes in and around the Yemeni capital, according to Houthi militiamen.
Local residents say the bombings targeted a military site under the control of the Shi’ite militant group in the north of Sana’a, as well as the homes of some of its leaders in the al Jaraf neighborhood.
An Arab coalition has been battering Yemen since late March, 2015, in a campaign to oust the dominant Houthi forces. It is hoped successful strikes will see the country’s elected President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi return from Riyadh, where he is currently in exile.
