Hussein al-Ezzi: Saudi-led coalition wages over 90 airstrikes on Yemen

SANAA, June 17 (YPA) – Hussein al-Ezzi, deputy foreign minister in the national Salvation government, on Wednesday said the coalition has carried out more than 90 raids in the past 24 hours, noting that the raids hit several Yemeni cities.

The continuation of this escalation and the extravagance of the bloodshed of Yemen will lead to a new chapter in the war, he added in a tweet.

He said: But I am sure that everything in it will be different and for the benefit will be in favor of the oppressed Yemen.

Saudi-led coalition forces warplanes continued their raids on Yemeni cities, including the capital Sanaa, for the second day in a row in a continuing escalation.

The coalition raids targeted various areas south of the capital at dawn, most notably the Al-Sawd and Sinhan regions, local sources said.

The new raids came a day after intensive raids targeting various parts of the capital on Tuesday.

Over the past two days, the coalition has begun an unprecedented escalation in Yemen, ending of its unilateral truce that has not been announced in the past months.
