Al Mayadeen's correspondent in Yemen reported that dozens of people were killed and wounded following the latest US aggression on Yemen, which targeted migrants at Saada's detention center.
According to local sources, US aircraft bombed a detention center building for illegal African migrants inside the Saada Correctional Facility, leaving dozens dead and injured.
Some of those killed were transferred to hospitals in the governorate, while security and paramedic teams continue rescue and first aid efforts for the wounded.
Hospitals in Saada overwhelmed after US aggression
Hospitals in Saada are struggling to accommodate the large number of wounded people, as casualties from the Saada massacre continue to rise. Medical teams are working under immense pressure, with limited resources, to treat those affected by the airstrike.
A local source told Al Mayadeen, "We are witnessing a new massacre in Saada, a testament to the level of American criminality, its confusion, and its great failure."
The source emphasized the scale of destruction and loss caused by this latest attack.
Before the attack on Saada, US airstrikes on Yemen targeted the Bart al-Anan district in al-Jawf governorate with four consecutive raids.
In a related development, the Yemeni Ministry of Health reported on Sunday that 12 people, including two women and three children, were killed and wounded as a result of the US aggression on the capital, Sanaa, the previous night.
