Yemen has been a target for nearly 17 countries, led by Saudi Arabia, in a military campaign that has killed and wounded thousands and left the country enduring the worst humanitarian catastrophe in the world. 

The Saudi-led coalition continued its daily bombing of Yemen on Tuesday, whereas it launched raids on various governorates, causing material damage to public and private property.

In the governorate of Saada, northern Yemeni border, the Saudi-led coalition fighter jets targeted Haidan district with at least 3 raids, while 5 raids hit the areas of Borkan and Bani Muein in Razih border district, in addition to 6 raids on the areas of Al-Qhad and Al-Azhor in Razih district, while two more raids rocked the area of Tkhia in Majz district.

Yemeni border regions are constantly being bombarded by the coalition and its forces, in which  artillery and missile assaults targeted different areas in the districts of Razih, Qamr and Munabeh border districts, Saada governorate.

Going to coastal Hodeidah governorate, western Yemen, the KSA/UAE fighter jets conducted two raids on the oil factory adjacent to the tourist club in Al-Marawha district, while an additional 8 raids struck civilian farms in Al-Tahita district, and 6 raids hit Al-Jarahi district.

In Marib governorate, the Saudi-led coalition launched a raid on Serwah district.

In the province of Sana’a, the coalition warplanes targeted the district of Nehm using at least 4 air raids, while later in the day an airstrike targeted Mahli area in Nehm district.

Heading to Hajjah governorate, nearly 9 raids rocked the districts of Medhi and Haridh based in the Yemeni-Saudi border.

In Najran, a Saudi governorate and a home for battles between the Yemeni army and Ansarullah on one hand, and the Saudi army and its mercenaries on the other, the coalition jets struck Al-Tala position with 5 air strikes.

A Saudi-led war began against Yemen on March 26 of 2015, in an attempt to reinstall a Saudi-friendly president, Hadi. Hadi was ousted by the Ansarullah revolutionaries, who enjoy wide public support, and that is when they took control over the country’s affairs with an aim of eliminating foreign intervention or influence over Yemen.
