TEHRAN, April 24 - Hours after turning a wedding ceremony to a funneral in al-Hajjah province of Yemen, the Saudi led coalition bombarded the Abass area in the same province.

TEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) – On Tuesday morning, the Saudi fighter jets targeted a gas station in al-Hajjah province west of Yemen.

In the wake of this brutal raid, 18 Yemeni civilians were killed and 13 more were injured.

Yesterday morning, a wedding ceremony in Yemen's was targeted by Saudi airstrikes in which almost 50 people were killed and 55 others injured.

The Saudi aggression was launched in March 2015 in support of Yemen’s former Riyadh-friendly government of president Abdrabbuh Mansour Hadi and against the country’s Houthi Ansarullah movement, which has been running state affairs in the absence of an effective administration.
The offensive has, however, achieved neither of its goals despite the spending of billions of petrodollars and the enlisting of Saudi Arabia's regional and Western allies.
