At least 11 people, including children, have been killed and over 30 injured in an airstrike on Yemen’s capital, Sanaa, media reports, citing local health officials. The blast affected a “metal workshop” and a nearby school.
The incident occurred in the city’s eastern Sawan neighborhood on Sunday afternoon. Locals heard at least two blasts, according to Xinhua.
While some eyewitnesses said an aircraft had targeted a “metal workshop,” a spokesman for the Houthi rebel-controlled Health Ministry said the strike actually was on a school close to the workshop. At least 11 people, “mostly schoolgirls” were killed and at least 39 others were injured.
Saudi-owned Al-Hadath TV for its part reported that the coalition had conducted several strikes on “military targets” in Sanaa, including in the Sawan neighborhood.
