At least 50 prisoners of war were killed in a series of airstrikes launched by the Saudi-led coalition overnight on a prison in Yemen, according to statement of a Houthi movement, Ansar Allah, TASS reports citing Xinhua.
The airstrikes were delivered in Yemen’s central Dhamar province, the report said.
According to Reuters, a total of six airstrikes have been carried out.
On Sunday morning, Al Arabiya TV channel reported a coalition airstrike on a military facility in Dhamar, which stored drones and missiles.
The war between the internationally-recognized Yemeni government and Houthi rebels from the Ansar Allah movement has been raging since August 2014. Military confrontation intensified after the Saudi-led coalition forces invaded the country in March 2015.
