Death Toll Rises to 23 After Saudi-Led Airstrike Hits Yemen Prison

Death Toll Rises to 23 After Saudi-Led Airstrike Hits Yemen PrisonPreviousNext

Rescuers in Yemen continue searching the rubble of a Houthi-run prison in northern Jawf province after a Saudi-led coalition airstrike caused its collapse, raising the death toll to 23 with seven still missing. The attack on Hazm city prompted retaliatory Houthi missile and drone strikes on southern Saudi Arabia, wounding 73 people. The coalition renewed airstrikes on Houthi military sites in Marib and Jawf provinces amid ongoing conflict between the Saudi-backed government and Iran-aligned Houthis, which began in 2014.
