Warplanes strike home province of Yemen's Houthis - sources


    DUBAI (Reuters) - Warplanes attacked two districts in the northern home province of Yemen's rebel Houthi movement around dawn on Friday, tribal sources said, a day after a Saudi-led coalition began air strikes in support of Yemen President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi.

    The strikes hit a market in Kataf al Bokaa in the north of Saada province, killing or wounding 15 people, they said. Shada district was also struck, they said.
