AN AIR attack by the United States killed at least six people and wounded 26 overnight in the Yemeni capital of Sanaa, authorities said today.

The Houthi-led government also claimed defence forces had shot down another US MQ-9 Reaper drone.

An intense month-long campaign of US air attacks under President Donald Trump, targeting the Yemenis over their attacks on Israeli and US shipping in the Red Sea, has killed over 120 people, according to figures released today by Yemen’s Health Ministry.
