Saudi airstrikes kill 15 in Yemen

SANAA: Saudi-led air strikes at least 15 people and injured dozens across Yemen late on Saturday.
The dead included five women and two children in attacks on Saada and Marib provinces, the agency said.
A Saudi-led Arab coalition has been bombarding Houthi rebels and allied army units since March 26 in a campaign to restore President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi to power.
Hadi, Riyadh’s ally, was pushed aside last year when Houthis advancing from their northern strongholds overran the government in the capital Sanaa and went on to capture lands to the south.
The Houthis are allied to former president Ali Abdullah Saleh, who still has the loyalty of much of the army.
