Saudi destroys Yemeni hospital

by Gulistan Elidemir

AT LEAST seven people were killed in a hospital in Yemen yesterday when a missile exploded nearby as protests marked the fourth anniversary of the start of the country’s civil war.

The projectile hit a petrol station 50 yards from the entrance of the Save the Children-backed Kitaf rural hospital in Houthi-held north-western Yemen. Four children were among the dead and another eight people were wounded.
