Saudi warplanes attack civilian target in Yemen, kill five civilians
2017-12-19
[PRESSTV] At least five civilians have been killed when Saudi military aircraft carried out an Arclight airstrike against a residential area in Yemen's western province of Hudaydah as the Saudi regime presses ahead with an atrocious military campaign against its crisis-hit southern neighbor.

Local sources, speaking on condition of anonymity
... for fear of being murdered...
, said five people bit the dust and ten others sustained injuries on Monday evening, when Saudi fighter jets bombarded a residential building in the al-Tafsah area of al-Khawkhah district.

Saudi military aircraft also carried out two aerial attacks against civilian targets in the Mondabah area of Yemen’s northwestern province of Sa'ada.

Additionally, Saudi warplanes hit a vehicle in the Baqim district, and launched an airstrike in the al-Malahit area of al-Dhaher district.

There were, however, no immediate reports about the number of possible casualties and the extent of damage caused.

#2  'Civilians' because the impact of the explosions separated them from their weapons?
