| [AnNahar] Saudi-led coalition air strikes hit a camp housing rebel troops in Yemen's third city Taez on Friday, after a night of festivities and raids throughout the war-hit country, residents said. Warplanes struck the camp, which was being used by a rebel army unit loyal to ousted president President-for-Life Ali Abdullah Saleh ... Saleh initially took power as a strongman of North Yemen in 1977, when disco was in flower, but he didn't invite Donna Summer to the inauguration and Blondie couldn't make it... in central Taez, they said. The main southern city of Aden also came under coalition fire as festivities between supporters of President Abedrabbo Mansour Hadi and rebels raged until dawn, pro-government Lions of Islam told Agence La Belle France Presse. Residents in Yemen's eastern Marib province also reported overnight air strikes and festivities between local rustics and rebel forces -- Shiite Huthis allied with Saleh's loyalist troops. AFP could not immediately obtain a casualty toll. |
