At least 15 people were killed when the Yemeni army bombarded a village in an area at the heart of a rebellion by the Zaidi minority against government forces, a tribal source said on Thursday.
The blast ripped through a petrol station in Souq al-Lail in the northern province of Saada on Wednesday night, setting the station ablaze, killing 15 people and injuring another 35, the source said, according to AFP. An army official confirmed the incident.
