The Houthi rebels on Monday said 68 people were killed in a US air strike on a centre housing African migrants, as Washington intensifies its bombing campaign in Yemen. The alleged strike was in Saada governorate, the Houthis said, with video on their Al Masirah satellite news channel showing what appeared to be dead and wounded from an explosion. “The civil defence has announced that 68 African migrants were killed and 47 others wounded in the US attack targeting a centre for illegal migrants in the city of Saada,” Al Masirah said. “Civil defence teams and the Red Crescent are continuing their efforts at the scene of the American crime,” he added.
