| [Al Jazeera] Saudi-UAE coalition air strikes on Yemen’s Hodeida province have killed and maimed several people, medical sources said. A spokesperson from the Houthi-affiliated health ministry said Tuesday's attacks on the city of Duraihami killed at least 13 civilians and injured 24 others. Doctor Youssef al-Hadri said that latest attacks hit a heavily populated area, damaging civilian infrastructure including medical facilities and mosques. Hadri added that medics from the International Committee of the Red Thingy (ICRC) were being prevented from entering the city. The ICRC for its part expressed concern with recent developments in the city and said it was still assessing the extent of the damage. |
