epa04679320 Yemenis search for survivors under the rubble of houses and vehicles which allegedly were destroyed by a Saudi air strike, in Sana’a, Yemen 26 March 2015. Saudi Arabia and other Gulf states launched air strikes against Houthi rebels which have taken over large parts of Yemen, attacking the Sana’a military Airport and Jiraf area, a Houthi stronghold. The strikes were ‘in support of the people of Yemen and their legitimate government,’ Saudi Arabia’s Washington ambassador Adel al-Jubeir said. The military operation by a ‘coalition of over 10 countries’ was in response to an appeal from embattled Yemeni President Abdo Rabbo Mansour Hadi, al-Jubeir said. EPA/YAHYA ARHAB
