Yemen’s Houthis accuse Saudi Arabia of air raids, missile strikes
Saba news agency, affiliated with the Houthi movement, reported that Saudi airstrikes killed seven people at a prison in Al-Hazm, northern Yemen.
Yemen's Iran-backed Houthis have accused Saudi Arabia of conducting airstrikes and missile strikes across the country in an ongoing offensive to seize territory near the Bab al-Mandab Strait. The rebels' media reported that attacks targeted Houthi positions in seven provinces, including the prison in Al-Hazm in the north of Yemen, where seven people, including a child, were killed and seven others wounded.
The UN's special envoy for Yemen warned that the Houthi assault has sparked increasingly intense clashes, which could further escalate the conflict and make it difficult to reach a political settlement.
