Air raids by Saudi Arabia to Yemen continued early this morning. On the fifth day of the offensive to rid the country of Shiite militias that have taken control, Sanaa was that night and for several hours the target of further air strikes.
The inhabitants of the cities report that the raids targeted mainly the diplomatic area.
Saudi Arabia is sticking for now to air strikes, but does not rule out sending ground troops.
Saudi Ambassador to the United States was the guest of Face the Nation last night on CBS:
"We have no choice, said Adel Al-Jubeir. We have done everything to avoid that. Yemenis have done everything to avoid that. Agreements have been signed, 67 in all, to be precise, but each of them has been denied by the Houthis. They continued to move forward in the country and when they were about to take Aden and the president, we have to intervene. "
This weekend the ground fighting broke out between forces loyal to President Abd Rabbou Mansour Hadi Shia Houthi fighters in Aden, the largest port in the south of the country, strategic, and again under the control of the legitimate authorities.
