Houthis say Saudi attack on Yemen prison kills nine

An attack by Saudi Arabia on a prison in northwestern Yemen killed nine detainees, a Houthi official on Tuesday told the Saba news agency, which is affiliated with the Iran-backed group.

"Nine prisoners captured during recent events were killed last night when the Saudi enemy targeted a prison" in Al-Hazm, in Al-Jawf governorate, said Houthi official Abdelkader al-Murtada.
