KABUL (Pajhwok): Seven people were killed and 30 others injured in the Houthi militias shelling of a camp for displaced persons in Haradh in Yemen’s Hajjah province on Saturday, according to a media report.

The Al Arabiya correspondent reported that the wounded included women and children, and that the camp is located about 15 kilometers from areas where clashes occur.

He also pointed out that the shelling was carried out by guided missile.

Meanwhile in Hodeidah, a Yemeni military source said that “the militias shelled grain mills and silos where wheat is stored using a number of missiles,” causing severe damage.

According to the official Yemeni news agency, the militias targeted the mills in order to prevent a visit, which was scheduled for Friday by the United Nations, and to obstruct the agreement made to facilitate the distribution of relief materials to Sanaa and the coastal strip.
