Saudi warplanes have bombarded several areas across Yemen’s Sa’ada Province with banned cluster bombs.
Yemen's al-Massira television channel reported on Wednesday that the Saudi airborne assaults claimed the lives an unspecified number of Yemeni civilians.
Riyadh has used cluster bombs on Yemenis multiple times during the past months. Back on Monday, Saudi warplanes dropped at least 10 cluster bombs on the Haydan district of the Northwestern Province a day after Yemeni media released a video showingthe residential area of Maran villagein the same province being targeted with the banned bombs by Saudi warplanes.
Meanwhile, Saudi fighter jets conducted a series of airstrikes, targeting an air defense camp in the Western Province of Hudaydah, as well as two islands in the Northwestern Province of Hajjah.
Airstrikes on the Western Sana’a Province also claimed the lives of at least two people and left several others injured.
In retaliatory attacks against Saudi forces, Ansarullah fighters and allied army units managed to kill at least a dozen supporters of the fugitive former president, Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi, in the Central Province of Ma’rib.
Yemen has been under incessant Saudi strikes since March 26. The strikes are supposedly meant to undermine the Houthi Ansarullah movement and restore power to Hadi, a staunch ally of Riyadh.
