Death toll from coalition airstrikes on Saada rises to 13 citizens: Health Ministry

SANAA, June 15 (YPA) – Spokesman of the Ministry of Health Yusef al-Hadhari said in a news statement that the death toll from the Saudi-led aggression coalition airstrikes on Monday on Saada province rose to 13 people.

Al-Hadhari condemned the aggression airstrikes that targeted a civilian car in the main road in Shada district and killed 13 citizens, including four citizens and a woman.

The spokesman affirmed this crime added to series of crimes committed by the Saudi-American aggression coalition against the Yemeni people under the international community and the United Nations’ silence for five years.

Al-Hadhari held the United Nations and the humanitarian and legal organizations the full responsibility for the ongoing crimes committed by the aggression coalition against citizens in Yemen.

The ministry called on the international community to move to stop the coalition’s criminal acts in Yemen and lift the siege imposed by the coalition countries against oil and food ships in an attempt to increase the humanitarian crisis and push thousands of Yemeni people to starvation.
