An airstrike has killed 25 people near Yemen's capital, Houthi official says
Houthi rebels say airstrikes have hit homes in a village near Yemen's capital, Sanaa, killing at least 27 people and wounding dozens. A spokesman for the Houthi-run Health Ministry accused Saudi Arabia of carrying out the strikes on al-Shariya. The casualties were mostly women and children, the Houthis said. Footage from Houthi-run TV showed hospital staff carrying bodies of multiple young children from ambulances. The Houthis claim they attacked Saudi Arabia in response to these strikes and another deadly attack on a market in southwestern Yemen.
Houthi officials said a Saudi airstrike near Sanaa, Yemen’s capital, killed people, with reports published in early November giving different tolls. Hindustan Times and DW reported 22 deaths, while The Globe and Mail, Global News and dailyliberal.com.au reported at least 25; RTÉ and The Independent cited 33, and WRAL.com reported at least 44. The Jerusalem Post said Reuters could not independently verify the account and that Saudi Arabia’s Center for International Communication was investigating, while Hindustan Times reported that Saudi Arabia had not commented.
