In Yemen, Saudi coalition resumes airstrikes after cease-fire ends


On Sunday, Saudi-led airstrikes resumed in Yemen after the five-day humanitarian cease-fire came to an end.
Two activists told CNN the strikes hit four different districts in Aden, and there have been no reports of deaths or injuries. The International Committee of the Red Cross said that during the cease-fire, it was able to get fuel and water to people in Aden, and medical supplies to hospitals in the city. A spokesman also said that the Red Cross worked with Yemen's Red Crescent Society to get wounded civilians to the hospital and retrieve dead bodies in Taiz, CNN reports.
