March 19/ Yemeni press

At least six civilians have lost their lives when Saudi fighter jets carried out an airstrike in Yemen’s southwestern province of Taiz as the US-Saudi regime continues with its atrocious aerial bombardment campaign against its impoverished southern neighbor.

Local sources told al-Masirah tv network that the aerial attack had targeted a vehicle as it was travelling along a road in the Maqbanah district of the province on Saturday afternoon.

Later in the day, Saudi military aircraft launched four air raids against Yakhtal area of the Red Sea port city of Mukha, situated 346 kilometers south of the capital, Sana’a. There were no reports about possible casualties and the extent of damage caused.

Saudi warplanes also struck the mountainous Jabal al-Omari area in the Dhubab district of the same Yemeni province, but no fatalities were reported.

Separately, Saudi fighter jets dropped internationally-banned cluster bombs on an area in the al-Khawkhah district of the coastal western province of Hudaida.
