Local sources told Arabic-language al-Masirah television network that the civilians lost their lives as Saudi warplanes struck two houses in the al-Marawi’ah district of the province, located 150 kilometers southwest of the capital, Sana’a, on Saturday evening.

Saudi fighter jets also launched four airstrikes against an area in the Dhubab district of the southwestern Yemeni province of Ta’izz, though no reports of possible casualties were immediately available.
