CAIRO — Airstrikes on a market and a farm in Yemen killed at least 68 civilians
in a single day, including eight children, the United Nations said on Thursday.
The death of Mr. Saleh — who became a strong ally of the Houthis,
but was killed after publicly breaking with them — has further exacerbated the humanitarian crisis, local and United Nations officials said.
Jamie McGoldrick said that These incidents prove the complete disregard for human life
that all parties, including the Saudi-led coalition, continue to show in this absurd war,
That attack, the United Nations said, killed 54 civilians, including the eight children, and wounded 32 more.
At least 109 civilians have been killed nationwide over the past two weeks, in a conflict
that has intensified since the death of the country’s former president, Ali Abdullah Saleh, this month.
