Sanaa, Oct 30 (IBNS): At least a dozen people were killed in airstrikes at a Yemeni prison on Saturday, reports said.

BBC quoted security and medical officials as saying that the airstrikes, conducted by the Saudi-led coalition, targeted a building which served as a prison in the al-Zaydiya security headquarters in the western port of Hudaydah.

The city is presently under the control of Houthi rebels.

Though officials said that 33 people have died, the Houthi media placed the figure at 43.

The prison was holding 84 inmates at the time it was hit.
