BBC:
Media linked to the Houthi movement in Yemen say at least 33 people, including women and children, have been killed in air strikes by Saudi Arabia.
There has been no comment from the Saudi-led coalition backing the internationally recognised government in Yemen.
Live video footage on Al Masirah – a television station run by the Houthis – has shown rescuers pulling bodies out of the rubble of several buildings in al-Shariyah, a town to the east of the capital, Sanaa.
The bodies of young children can be seen among those dug out from the ruins.
The television station has also shown a number of injured people being carried on stretchers to hospital.
Saba news agency, which is also run by the Houthis, said the attack was carried out by Saudi Arabia on Saturday. It added that 39 people had been injured.
The Saudis have led a coalition that has been fighting the Houthis for more than a decade in support of Yemen’s internationally recognised government.
The war in Yemen had been dormant for several years but reignited as a result of the Iran war.
