Air strikes hit north of Yemen's capital

Air strikes by the Saudi-led military coalition fighting in Yemen targeted an area north of the capital Sanaa on Thursday, a television station run by Yemen's Iranian-aligned Houthi group said.

Al-Masirah TV said there were two air raids. The strikes come a day after the coalition vowed to respond firmly to a Houthi missile attack on a civilian airport in southern Saudi Arabia on Wednesday that wounded 26 people.

There was no immediate confirmation from the coalition about the strikes.
