14 dead as Saudi coalition bombs Yemen after UAE attack

SANAA (HRNW) – The Saudi-led coalition killed 14 people in air strikes on Yemen s rebel-held capital, a medical source said Tuesday, after an attack by Huthi insurgents on the United Arab Emirates sent regional tensions soaring.

Sanaa residents were combing the rubble for survivors of the strikes that levelled two houses, hours after the Huthis had killed three people Monday in a drone and missile attack on the UAE capital Abu Dhabi.

Huthi Brigadier General Abdullah Qassem al-Junaid, director of the rebelsĀ  air force academy, was killed along with family members, the rebelsĀ  Saba news agency said.

Coalition forces launched further strikes on Sanaa on Tuesday.

“The search is still going on for survivors in the rubble,” said Akram al-Ahdal, a relative of several of the victims.
