Sanaa, February 12 (RHC)-- Saudi Arabia has launched a new round of airstrikes against areas across Yemen, as the Riyadh regime and its allies continue a devastating war and all-out brutal blockade against the impoverished Arab nation.
Saudi jets carried out two air raids against Airport Street in the heavily populated al-Thawra neighborhood of the capital Sana’a early on Saturday, Yemen’s al-Masirah television network reported. However, there were no immediate reports about possible casualties and the extent of damage caused.
Earlier, Saudi fighter jets had launched an airstrike against al-Sabaha area of the Bani Matar district in Sana’a, but no information about casualties and damage was quickly available.
Two airstrikes were also carried out by Saudi jets against the Wadi Ubaidah district area in the central province of Ma'rib. In the same Yemeni province, eleven further aerial raids targeted the district of al-Jubah.
Meanwhile, a leading humanitarian organization for children has described January as the bloodiest month since 2018 for Yemen, stating that one Yemeni civilian was either killed or wounded every hour during the last month.
