Yemen condemns Saudi airstrikes as 103 raids target civilian areas in 24 hours
Yemen's Armed Forces have strongly condemned Saudi Arabia's continued military aggression against the country, reporting that Saudi warplanes carried out 103 airstrikes within 24 hours, targeting civilian areas across six Yemeni provinces.
Brigadier General Yahya Saree, spokesman for the Yemeni Armed Forces, said the latest wave of bombardments targeted civilian sites in Marib, Saada, Al-Hudaydah, Taiz, Lahj and Al-Jawf, causing civilian casualties.
According to Saree, the attacks were carried out by F-15 and Eurofighter Typhoon fighter jets operating from Saudi Arabia's Khamis Mushait and Taif airbases.
He condemned the continued bombardment of Yemeni territory, saying the attacks had resulted in civilians being killed and wounded, although no precise casualty figures were provided.
Saree further revealed that the total number of airstrikes and missile attacks launched by Saudi forces since the beginning of their latest escalation against Yemen had reached 4,563.
The latest attacks underscore the continued suffering of Yemen's civilian population amid the intensification of Saudi military operations, with residential and civilian areas bearing the consequences of the bombardment.
The Yemeni Armed Forces have repeatedly denounced the attacks, vowing to defend the country's sovereignty and territorial integrity against continued military aggression. (ILKHA)
