Saudi-Led Attack on Yemen Market Kills, Injures Over 35 Civilians

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – A Saudi-led attack on a market killed at least 10 civilians including children in Yemen’s northern Saada province, a medical source said.

The manager of the local Al Jomhouri hospital said 13 people were killed and 23 injured in airstrikes in Qatabir district by the Saudi-led coalition

Al Masirah TV said the death toll had risen to 14.

“There are two children among the martyrs and 11 children among those injured,” hospital manager Saleh Qorban told Reuters.

Masirah later said four children were killed.

Al Masirah, citing a Houthi military spokesman, said the group launched drone attacks on a Saudi airbase in the south of the kingdom on Monday in retaliation to the Monday attack.

Human rights groups have criticized Western countries that provide arms and intelligence to the coalition over airstrikes that have killed civilians at hospitals, schools and markets.

The Western-backed military aggression, coupled with a naval blockade, has killed tens of thousands of Yemenis, destroyed the country’s infrastructure, and led to a massive humanitarian crisis.

The US-based Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project (ACLED), a nonprofit conflict-research organization, estimates that the Saudi-led war has claimed the lives of over 60,000 Yemenis since January 2016.
