Yemen’s Houthi movement said early on Monday that five civilians from one family had been killed in air strikes by the Saudi-led coalition in Omran province in Yemen, according to the Houthi owned Al-Masirah TV.
The armed group said the Saudi-led coalition hit a mosque where the family had sought shelter when the strikes began.
Two children from the same family were missing, the report said, and rescuers were searching the rubble of the building.
There was no immediate confirmation from Saudi Arabia.
On Friday, the Houthis said they would stop aiming missile and drone attacks at Saudi Arabia, even as it warned that the continuation of the war could lead to “dangerous developments”.
The announcement followed Saudi-led air strikes on Thursday against the Houthis based north of Yemen’s port city of Hodeidah — an attack that was seen as a retaliation for attacks the previous weekend on Saudi Arabia’s oil fields.
