Eight civilians, including three women, were killed and wounded, after artillery shelling by the Houthi militia, the Iranian arm in Yemen, on Sunday, on a residential neighborhood in the city of Hodeidah, in the west of the country.

Medical sources said that five civilians were killed and three others were wounded, as a result of the Houthi shell falling on a house in the Al-Rabsa residential neighborhood in Al-Hawk district.

It explained that the Houthi projectile fell directly on the house of citizen Amin Fattini, which led to the killing of five, among them a woman: Saber Amin Abdullah Fattini, Muhammad Saber Amin Fattini, Nessma Saber Amin Fattini, Walid Samir Yamani, and Haitham Muhammad Anbar.

Meanwhile, Nagham Saber Amin Fateeni, Basma Muhammad Yusuf and Faris Saber were injured.

The Houthi militia committed a bloody massacre in the same neighborhood late last year 2020, after it targeted a wedding hall during a wedding party, killing and wounding a number of civilians, including women and children.
