8 fishermen killed in Saudi strikes on boats off Yemen’s Taiz coast

Eight fishermen were killed on Tuesday when warplanes struck two fishing boats off the Al-Kadha coast in the Dhubab district of Yemen’s Taiz province, according to local sources cited by the Yemen News Agency (SABA).

The source stated that the aircraft carried out two airstrikes specifically targeting the boats, resulting in the deaths of all eight fishermen on board. The report described the victims as “martyred” in the attack.

The incident occurred amid ongoing military operations in the region. The agency attributed the strikes to Saudi warplanes, though independent verification of the operational details was not immediately available.
