Two separate landmine explosions kill four people in Yemen


Two separate landmine explosions killed four Yemenis in two regions of the war-ravaged Arab country on Tuesday, a military official told Xinhua.

“Three people, including two children, were killed in Hodeidah’s southern district of Durayhimi by an explosion caused by a landmine that the Houthis had earlier planted,” the local official said on condition of anonymity. “The victims were riding their motorcycle and heading to their residential area in Hodeidah when they were hit by the explosion,” he said.

In the northeastern oil-rich province of Marib, another landmine explosion killed one person and injured two others, he noted, adding the injured people were transferred to a nearby government-run hospital to receive medical treatment.
