Saudi Arabia launched heavy airstrikes on central Sana’a, Yemen’s capital, on Wednesday, targeting a building belonging to the Yemen Petroleum Company. The powerful explosions also damaged several nearby buildings.

Another strike targeted the Al-Mafsar gas filling station, destroying 13 fuel tankers and a public gas supply platform. Several powerful explosions were heard across central Sana’a, spreading panic throughout the capital, Al Jazeera reported.

Meanwhile, Yemen’s Houthi rebels said Saudi forces shelled the Qatabir and Saada districts in the Saudi border region of Saada governorate. The attacks were reportedly launched from Saudi Arabia’s Najran and Jazan regions. The Houthis claimed that the targeted areas were densely populated.

A Houthi spokesperson said the Saudi-led military coalition had carried out 109 air and missile strikes over the past 24 hours, causing numerous civilian casualties.

The spokesperson also claimed that 84 people were killed in Saudi strikes in the Bani Hushays area over the past two days. They were scheduled to be buried in Sana’a’s Al-Sabeen area on Wednesday.

The conflict between Saudi Arabia and Houthi rebels has intensified since July. At least 2,000 people have been killed in the fighting, while around 300,000 have been displaced in Yemen.
