A humanitarian organization has warned of an aggravating situation in the Yemeni southern city of Aden as Saudi Arabia's deadly airstrikes against the impoverished Arab country continue unabated.
Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) or Doctors Without Borders issued the warning on Tuesday, saying the situation is “worsening by the day.”
Aden has been the scene of fierce clashes between forces loyal to fugitive former President Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi and members of popular committees backed by Houthis, with witnesses saying that Saudi-led naval forces shelled the positions of the revolutionaries across the city, a claim denied by the Saudis.
The UN says at least 74 children have been killed since the beginning of Saudi strikes -- though the real figure is thought to be much higher -- while more than 100,000 have been displaced.
