Saudi-led raid on police camp in Sanaa leaves at least 39 Yemenis dead – report

Saudi-led coalition aircraft struck a military police camp in the Houthi-controlled Yemeni capital Sanaa on Wednesday. At least 39 people were killed and 90 more wounded, including prisoners, Reuters reported, citing an official and witnesses. The coalition aircraft had launched seven raids on the camp, in the eastern part of Sanaa, where some 180 prisoners were being held, according to the official. He said rescue teams had pulled out 35 bodies from the rubble, while the rest were not accounted for. The coalition, which denies that it targets civilians, has not commented on the report.
