Saudi-led airstrikes killed 20 civilians in the rebel-held Yemeni port city of Hodeida late on Wednesday just hours after the rebels celebrated the second anniversary of their seizure of the capital, a government official said.

The raids hit the Suq al-Hunod district of the Red Sea port, said the official in the government of President Abedrabbo Mansour Hadi which is supported by the Saudi-led coalition.

The strikes were also reported by the rebel administration in the capital Sanaa, which said there were civilian casualties but gave no specific toll.
