Sanaa, July 8 (RHC)-- In Yemen, clashes and airstrikes by the Saudi-led coalition have killed nearly 200 people, including many civilians, in what appears to be the deadliest day since the U.S.-backed offensive began. In total, nearly 3,000 people have been killed since late March, when the Saudi-led coalition began airstrikes against Shiite Houthi rebels.
Among those reported killed on Monday were 30 people at a market in the northern province of Amran and 60 people at a livestock market in the southern town of al-Foyoush. Last week, the United Nations declared its highest-level humanitarian emergency in Yemen, where it says more than 80 percent of the population needs aid.
