The United Nations office in Yemen said preliminary field reports indicated that “as many as 31 civilians were killed and 12 others injured in strikes that hit Al-Hayjah area” in Al-Jawf province. But the Saudi-led coalition’s spokesman Colonel Turki al-Malki said only that a Tornado jet had crashed in Al-Jawf, Saudi state news agency reported on Saturday. Maliki later said that rescue operations had been launched and that the possibility of “collateral damages” has been reported, without providing more details.

The office of the U.N. resident coordinator in Yemen said in a statement that humanitarian partners have deployed rapid response teams for the victims, many of whom were being transferred to hospitals in Al-Jawf governorate and Sanaa for treatment.

Houthi shot down the most sophisticate Saudi Tornado by iranian made weapon. Unrelated news: US embassy compound got hit by rockets again, no casualty report. US sent more troops into the northeast syrian province to guard syrian oil. Sy shot down 9/10 israeli Delila missiles.

confirm more with solid proof first

...the ordinary madness of a sleeping mankind unaware of their beautiful souls radiating love and compassion WakeUp violence is NOT the nature of man life is NOT given to kill,to destroy.

Saudi Arabia Is Committing War Crimes in Yemen Every day... How can the United States, Britain, and France keep shipping Riyadh arms when its pilots are dropping bombs on innocent civilians?

'civilians' VERY believable-they all dress like civs.

Saudi arabia.usa of the middle East .kills innocent people in the own country.destriys nations to spread there agenda

I wouldn't believe anything the Houthi's say or do.

Those aren't civilians .houthies are never in army uniform we should belive it just cause the houthies said so?

Horrific...!!!

The UN is owned by the Saudi’s time it was closed down.

Allah belanı versin Suudi Arabistan

Stop war in Yemen

The Saudis must continue the search and rescue mission to recover the 2 pilots, at any cost. The Houthis use civilians as shields, and this could lead to the unfortunate death of some innocent civilians.

The Houthis distort the facts and it is unfortunate to see some media outlets using the Houthis as a source of their news! Saudi Arabia adheres to international laws that guarantee the safety of civilians, and it is purifying Yemeni lands from the Houthi terrorism backed by Iran.

Unfortunately, the world and the media ignore documented reports on the crimes of the Houthi militia, work to falsify facts and exercise double standards on the issue in order to condemn the kingdom and accuse it of human rights violations.

houthi crimes have left a crisis in yemen, iran doesn't care about civilians, it uses them as human shields in order to claim a victory or to accuse saudi arabia.

This is not the first time that US forces have been able to seize arms shipments going in Al Baha to arm the Houthis against the Yemeni army

Iranian arms control reveals that Tehran continues its projects to threaten the security of the region and that the call for peace is only part of the policy of maneuvering.

False news! You and the Houthies need to prove it, otherwise you will be liars.

Evil trump. The trump family have killed so many people around the world. This is a family of terrorist and they are doing it for the money.

This going to happen when these cowards like the palestinans hide amongst their women. They cant fight like men so they use terrorism and hidden bombs. If they operate from urban areas with civilian populations, I lay these deaths at the door of the Iran-backed Yemen terrorists.

iranian regime’s voice

S.O.S. We need women in leadership. No more wars.

Your title says something completely different than your article. The title blames Yemen while the article says Yemen blames Saudi. Who did what?

Yemen without oil reservation. If air strikes, end of war.

Why don’t you say ‘Saudi air strikes’?

Stop using gadgets in flight IDEAL so IT cannot be HACKED and CRASHED the new GAME .. I crush yours You crush MINE we all can CRASH anything ....jeez am chanelling ...again damn PSY beta

Because the Houthis use civilians as human shields.

How many Yemen’s civilians were killed by Saudi for so many years?

yeah but what is SA doing to Yemen and why are we helping?
