At least five civilians have been killed when Saudi military aircraft carried out two separate airstrikes against residential areas in Yemen’s northwestern province of Hajjah and the western coastal province of Hudaydah as the Riyadh regime presses ahead with its atrocious bombardment campaign against its southern neighbor.

Saudi fighter jets struck a car as it was travelling along a road in Bani Hassan area of the Abs district in Hajjah province on Sunday afternoon, leaving four people dead and another injured, an unnamed local source told Yemen’s Arabic-language al-Masirah television network.

Earlier in the day, a Yemeni civilian lost his life and four others sustained injuries when Saudi military aircraft hit an area in Zayed road of the al-Hali district in Hudaydah province.

Saudi Arabia and a number of its regional allies launched a devastating military campaign against Yemen in March 2015.
