Saudi airstrikes kill 5 family members west of Yemen’s capital

At least five civilians have been martyred when Saudi warplanes bombed a village on the western outskirts of Sana’a, Yemen

At least five civilians have been martyred when Saudi warplanes bombed a village on the western outskirts of Sana’a, Yemen.

The victims were all members of a single family, who were martyred in a fresh Saudi airstrike against Yemen as Riyadh pushes ahead with its military campaign against Houthi Ansarullah fighters in the impoverished Arab country.

Local sources, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the victims lost their lives when Saudi military aircraft fired several missiles into a number of houses in Beit Rajal village, which lies on the western outskirt of the Yemeni capital, Sana’a, on Monday noon.

Hundreds of civilians, including women and children, have lost their lives in the Saudi airborne attacks against Yemen.
