The Houthi militia renewed the bombing of residential neighborhoods in the city of Hays, south of Hodeidah Governorate, causing the destruction of a number of homes as a result of the fall of indiscriminate shells fired by the Houthi militia and civilian casualties.

Local sources said that the militias bombed dozens of mortar shells from several directions at homes and populated neighborhoods in the center of the city of Hays.

The Houthi bombing affected three neighborhoods: Ruba' Al-Hadrami, Al-Mahallah and Al-Souq, and resulted in severe damage to more than five residential homes of the Mitila family.

The bombing caused a state of panic and fear among civilians, and the citizen Majed Salman Ghaleb Assal was injured by shrapnel from an artillery shell that hit him in the head, while he was working in a brick factory in Salah al-Din neighborhood.

Ruba’ Al-Souq also witnessed the injury of the young Ammar Muhammad Abdo Shebel, while passing on the street, as a result of the hysterical bombardment of Iran's arm and its continuous violation of the Sweden agreement.

The injured were transported on board the joint forces' ambulances to the medical point to receive urgent aid, before they were transferred to other hospitals in Al Khokha and Mocha.
