Houthis blame Saudi Arabia for strikes against Taiz market that killed seven, left 40 wounded
The attack, allegedly carried out by an F-15 squadron from Saudi Arabia, left 50 casualties between wounded and killed, the Houthis claimed.
The Houthi military spokesperson, Yahya Saree, claimed that Saudi Arabia was responsible for an attack on a market in Taiz province, Yemen, on Sunday, rather than Yemen's internationally recognized government. The attack, which resulted in the deaths of seven people and injuries to 40 others, including children, was carried out by a Saudi F-15 squadron, according to Houthi claims.
The Houthi-run health ministry reported the casualties, while the Yemeni government later stated that its forces had targeted a Houthi military camp and vehicles at the same location. Saree warned that the strike would have severe consequences for the Saudi perpetrator. In addition to the Taiz attack, Houthi claims also stated that Saudi forces had targeted four sites in the Al-Jawf province, though the casualties in that operation were not specified.
