Yemen: dozens of civilians killed in a raid by anti-coalition Houthis


The Arab coalition, led by Saudi Arabia, continued its air raids on Monday in Yemen. These military operations aim to halt the progression of the Houthi Shiite militiamen.


But dozens of civilians were killed in one of those strikes. The victims were in a refugee camp in the northwest of the country. These are the most heavy civilian casualties since the launch of the military offensive of the Arab coalition last week.


Foreign Minister of the government loyal to President Abd-Rabbo Mansour Hadi accused the Houthi rebels of using "human shields". "They settled in places where there are civilians in residential areas, and they settle down their weapons", explained Ryad Yassin.


Houthi militias control part of Yemeni territory, including the capital Sanaa. And they are now at the gates of Aden, large port city in the south. This is where the faithful were down military to President Mansour Hadi. The fighting in this region have already fifty dead since Thursday.
