Yemen: Coalition air strikes kill 16 Houthi rebels
Sixteen rebels were killed and 24 wounded in 24 hours of air raids by the Saudi-led coalition targeting the insurgents in Yemen.
The Houthi rebels were killed in air strikes on an airbase and arms depot in the east of the rebel-held Hodeidah province since Friday, a military official said.
A source in the Arab coalition, which includes the UAE, said Hodeidah was one of the areas being targeted since Friday as part of continuing military operations on areas under rebel control.
The dead and wounded rebels killed in the latest clashes were transferred to Al Alfi military hospital and Al Thawra hospital in the Houthi-controlled city of Hodeidah, medics at the hospitals said.
