A Saudi airstrike on Thursday in the northern Yemeni province of Saada killed ten civilians, including women and children.Medics who saw the wreckage said a house in Ouled Amer village was destroyed during the strike. A spokesman for the Saudi-led coalition could not immediately be reached for comment, Reuters reported.The Saudi-led coalition has carried out frequent airstrikes against the Houthi rebels, often killing civilians in the process.

Saudi Arabia commenced its deadly airstrikes in Yemen in March 2015 after the Houthis ousted the internationally-recognised government of President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi. Hadi currently lives in exile in Riyadh.



On Wednesday, two Yemeni government ministers resigned to protest what they say is Riyadh's refusal to allow Hadi to return to Yemen.
