A new Houthi ballistic missile attack on the Yemen government-held city of Marib, to the country's east, has killed and injured 13 civilians including children, local sources told Saba.

The Houthi militia fired later this morning a number of missiles on Al-Rowdha neighborhood in the densely populated city and one of the rockets killed three civilians including 12-year-old Ghaleb Alsalihi and injured 10 others including three children. The wounded sustained shrapnel and their wounds were categorized as "serious" by doctors.

The militia have been for years using ballistic missiles and drones in indiscriminate attacks on the city of more than two million residents, most of whom are escapees from the crackdown of the terrorist militia.
