The Israeli military said it intercepted a missile launched from Yemen early Saturday, a day after the Huthi-held capital Sanaa was hit by fresh air strikes.

Director-General of the World Health Organization, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, says he was close to the departure lounge when it was hit.

Israeli air strikes hit Yemen’s main airport as a civilian Airbus 320 with hundreds of passengers was landing and a United Nations delegation was waiting to leave, the UN’s top humanitarian official in Yemen has said.
