In Yemen, Saudi strikes kill 22, according to the Houthis

Media linked to the Houthis in Yemen announced, Saturday, November 7, the death of 22 people in Saudi strikes on the Sanaa region, controlled by the pro-Iranian movement, in conflict against the Yemeni government and Saudi Arabia which supports it.

“The number of victims of the massacre perpetrated by the Saudi enemy aircraft (...) rose to 22 people, including women and children, and that of the injured to 30,” reported the Saba agency, a report also put forward by the Almasirah channel. Saba initially recorded 11 dead and 20 injured.

Almasirah released a video it said was taken in the village of Al-Shariyah, east of Sanaa, showing smoke rising from a struck site, piles of rubble and injured people hospitalized. The agency, citing a local source, said planes from the military coalition led by Riyadh had targeted six houses in the area. Rescuers were also targeted, according to the same source, while rescue operations are still underway. Saudi authorities have not commented on this information.

On Friday, a bombing on a market in the governorate of Taiz, whose town of the same name has been surrounded for weeks by the Houthis, killed several dozen people. Riyadh-backed government forces and the Houthis blamed each other for the attack.
