(AhlulBayt News Agency) - At least 12 civilians have been killed after Saudi warplanes attacked a pick-up truck in the northwestern Yemeni province of Hajjah on Wednesday, residents say.
Locals said the passengers were shoppers heading to a local market in the Hiran area, which is controlled by the Houthi movement, adding six others were injured.
Separately, Saudi aircraft carried out bombings in the Nihm district in Sana’a province and Dhubab district in Ta'izz province, but there was no immediate word on possible casualties or damage.
Meanwhile, Yemen's army snipers killed four Saudi troops in Rabou’ah in Saudi Arabia's southwestern region of Asir, media reports said.
Thousands of Saudi airstrikes have failed to dislodge the Houthis from the capital, Sana'a, but have hit schools, markets, hospitals and homes, killing many civilians which rights groups say may amount to war crimes.
More than 11,000 people have been killed in the 20-month Saudi war which has unleashed a humanitarian crisis in one of the Arab world's poorest countries.
