Saudi-Led Airstrikes Hit Military Camp In Yemen’s Houthi-Held Capital

SANAA, Jan 26 (NNN-YPA) – The Saudi-led coalition in Yemen, launched multiple airstrikes on a military camp, controlled by the Houthi militia, in the Yemeni capital, last night, Houthi-run al-Masirah TV reported.

It was the second consecutive day of airstrikes by the coalition, that hit the al-Siyanah maintenance camp, in central Sanaa, al-Masirah said, without providing further details.

The explosions smashed windows of nearby houses and set a fire, which could be seen from downtown.

The airstrikes came, after the militia claimed responsibility for explosive-laden drones and ballistic missile attacks, on sites in Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) on Monday.

This was the second of such cross-border attacks against Saudi Arabia and the UAE, claimed by the Houthi militia in nearly a week.

The UAE is a key member of the Saudi-led Arab coalition, that has been supporting the Yemeni government army, against the Houthi militia since Mar, 2015.

The Houthi militia has lost several strategic districts in the oil-rich provinces of Shabwa and Marib in central Yemen this month, after deadly fighting against the Yemeni army.– NNN-YPA
