Three Yemeni killed in Saudi-led shelling

SANAA (Agencies): At least three civilians have been killed and another sustained injuries when militiamen loyal to the country’s former president, Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi, shelled a residential neighborhood in Yemen’s southern province of Ta’izz despite a two-week ceasefire declared by the Saudi-led coalition.

Local sources, speaking on condition of anonymity, told Arabic-language al-Masirah television network that the Saudi mercenaries fired projectiles at Wadi Hanash village in the At Ta’iziyah district of the province Sunday afternoon.

The sources added that 2 women and a child were killed whilst a man was injured when their house was struck in the shelling.

Separately, Saudi units launched artillery rounds and mortar shells at residential areas in the Razih district of Yemen’s northwestern province of Sa’ada.

There were, however, no immediate reports about possible casualties and the extent of damage caused.

Saudi-led warplanes also carried out eight airstrikes against the Khabb-waash-Sha’af district in the northern Yemeni province of Jawf. No reports of casualties and damage were quickly available.

Elsewhere in the Sirwah district, Saudi-led warplanes pounded several areas on three occasions. There were no casualties immediately reported though.
