The Yemeni Ministry of Health announced on Wednesday that the death toll from the US aggression in the western governorate of Hodeidah has risen to ten, with 16 others wounded. Rubble removal operations are still underway.
“Among the martyrs were four children and five women. The casualties resulted from a US strike on the Amin Muqbil residential neighborhood in the al-Hawak District of Hodeidah,” the ministry explained in a statement.
The ministry condemned the continued targeting of civilians and civilian objects by the US enemy, calling it “a full-fledged war crime that violates all international norms and laws.”
Continuous efforts are underway to recover and rescue victims of the airstrikes on the Amin Muqbil residential neighborhood in the al-Hawak District, the ministry added, highlighting the civil defense teams’ search and rescue efforts.
The US-led aggression on Yemen targeted several locations with airstrikes on Tuesday, killing several people as rescue missions continue to extract people from under the rubble.
