Houthis Accuse Saudi Arabia of Air Strike on Yemen Prison Amid Ongoing ConflictPreviousNext

Houthi rebels in Yemen accused Saudi Arabia of an air strike on the Central Corrective Facility prison in Hazm, Jawf province, killing seven people including a child and injuring others. The strike reportedly trapped 35 prisoners and a visitor under rubble. Houthi military spokesperson Brig Gen Yahya Saree condemned the attack and claimed to have shot down four Saudi reconnaissance drones recently. Saudi Arabia's media ministry has not commented. The incident occurs amid ongoing conflict between Houthi forces and the internationally recognised Yemeni government.
