Yemeni officials say coalition airstrike kills 8 civilians

An airstrike by the Saudi-led coalition on Tuesday mistakenly killed eight civilians building a home in an area on the border between Yemen's southern provinces of Lahj and Taiz, security officials said.

They said the airstrike, which also wounded nine civilians, was called in by pro-government fighters who were locked in a fierce battle with Shiite rebels for control over a mountain overlooking a key military base that is home to forces from Yemen alongside allied troops from Sudan and the United Arab Emirates.

They said Jalis mountain was eventually captured by the Iranian-backed rebels, known as Houthis, after a three-day battle in which some 45 people were killed from both sides – by Ahmed Al-Hai

Bei Luftangriff irrtümlich Zivilisten getötet

Die von Saudiarabien geführte Koalition hat bei einem Luftangriff im Jemen irrtümlich acht Zivilisten getötet. Regierungstreue Kräfte hätten die Kampfflugzeuge zu Hilfe gerufen, als sie sich an der Grenze zwischen den Provinzen Lahdsch und Tais heftige Kämpfe mit schiitischen Rebellen um den Berg Dschalis lieferten, teilten Sicherheitsbeamte mit. Die Maschinen hätten dann am Dienstagmorgen irrtümlich Zivilisten bombardiert, die gerade ein Haus bauten.
