Sanaa, May 28 (RHC)-- Saudi-led airstrikes have killed at least 80 people in Yemen, marking the deadliest day of the two-month bombing campaign to date. The strikes battered the Yemeni capital Sanaa and the Bakeel al-Meer area near the Saudi border, where residents told Reuters at least 40 people were killed, most of them civilians.

Saudi planes and ships blasted Yemen’s largest military port in the city of Hudaydah, marking the worst attack on Yemen’s navy since Saudi Arabia launched its offensive on Iranian-aligned Houthi rebels in March.

Warplanes also targeted a car thought to be carrying Houthi leaders in central Sanaa. An eyewitness said the strike destroyed homes and injured residents, including children.
