Coalition warplanes struck points on the Nahdain and Fajj Attan hills
Powerful explosions shook the Yemeni capital, witnesses said, after the Saudi-led coalition vowed to press its air war following the missile strike by the Yemeni Missiles Unit that killed a hundred of coalition soldiers.
The United Arab Emirates had pledged to quickly avenge its heaviest-ever military loss after 45 of its soldiers were killed in Friday’s missile attack, along with 10 Saudis and five Bahrainis, according to Gulf media.
Coalition warplanes struck points on the Nahdain and Fajj Attan hills and the neighboring presidential complex, south of Sanaa, as well as a headquarters for Special Forces.
Also targeted were areas in the northern neighborhoods of Sufan and al-Nahda, forcing scores of residents to flee.
Witnesses said Sunday’s bombardment was one of the heaviest since the air campaign began.
