The attack began in the wake of the announcement of the death of Major Tareq al-Allaiqi, the one that activists confirm beingas one of the leaders of the Saudi aggression that continues for more than a month on the town.

The attacks by the Saudi forces resulted in wounding dozens of innocent civilians including women and children.

Among the wounded was the well-known activist Mohammed al-Nimr, brother of Sheikh Nimr al-Nimr, who was shot in the foot by a Saudi sniper while driving to his home. Al-Nimrwas taken to a hospital and underwent surgery.
