Saudi Warplanes Bomb More Areas of Yemen Amid Humanitarian Crisis
Alwaght-Saudi regime jet fighters have carried more airstrikes in Yemen amid a humanitarian crisis in the impoverished country.
In the latest attacks, The Saudi warplanes launched on Saturday a series of air raids on Sa'ada governorate, Yemen's Saba news agency reported
A local official said that air strikes targeted al-Harf area in Baqim district, adding several houses were completely destroyed and many others were damaged.
Late on Saturday, the fighter jets conducted attacks on the northwestern Yemeni province of Hajjah. Saudi jets also bombed a fuel station and several houses in the Bayt al-Faqih district in Yemen’s western province of Hudaydah.
Moreover, two Saudi air raids hit the Sirwah district in the central province of Ma'rib.
In response to the brutal  Saudi agression, Yemen’s Ansarullah fighters and allied army units have targeted more Saudi bases with shells and artillery fire in the southwestern Dhahran al-Janub region.
The Saudi regime is continuing its ruthless military aggression against Yemen despite calls for a ceasefire.
On Thursday Human Rights Watch (HRW) called on Saudi Arabia to “immediately stop” its use of cluster munitions against Yemen, which has resulted in the deaths of dozens of civilians in the country.
The leading New York-based rights group said on Thursday that it had evidence showing that at least seven such attacks had occurred in the northwestern province of Hajjah between the months of April and July.
Months of violence and destruction caused by Saudi Arabia’s aggression against Yemen has overwhelmed aid groups with "massive" humanitarian needs.
Since March 26, Riyadh has been pounding various areas in Yemen – without a UN mandate. The military aggression is meant to undermine the popular Ansarullah movement and restore power to Yemen’s fugitive former President Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi, a staunch ally of the Riyadh regime.
