At least 41 Yemeni civilians were killed when Saudi-led coalition warplanes hit a market Tuesday in the rebel-held northern Hajja province, medics and tribal sources said, AFP reports.
An official at a hospital run by Doctors Without Borders (MSF) said the facility had received the bodies of 41 people killed in the raids, along with 35 people who were wounded.
A health official in Hajja said the casualties were civilians and included children, adding that “the toll could rise”.
Local officials and tribal sources told AFP that coalition warplanes carried out several raids on the market in the town of Mustabaa.
