SANAA, Aug. 13 (Xinhua) -- As many as 10 children were killed and 28 others injured in a Saudi-led airstrike on Saturday, after a school in the Houthi main stronghold province of Saada was hit, the humanitarian association Doctors Without Borders (MSF) said.
The MSF reported that on its official Twitter account, adding that the children were between 8 and 15 years old, but released no statement or details on its official website.
The Houthi-held Saba news agency also reported the airstrike.
The Saudi-led warplanes launched over 100 airstrikes against military targets of Houthi and Saleh in several northern provinces on Saturday, including the Houthi-held capital Sanaa.
Saudi Arabia and its allies intervened in support of exiled Yemeni government in 2015, but failed to bring it back to power in the rebel-held capital Sanaa.
The war and airstrikes have since killed over 6,400 people, mostly civilians. Enditem
