  • Houthi-affiliated media report artillery fire targeting the Shada border district in northwestern Yemen.
  • The reports attribute the shelling to Saudi-led coalition forces.
  • Separate reports by Houthi-affiliated media have documented civilian injuries in the same district.

Artillery shelling was reported in the Shada border district of Saada Governorate in northwestern Yemen, according to Houthi-affiliated media.

The reports attributed the artillery fire to Saudi-led coalition forces. However, no independent confirmation of the latest incident or details regarding potential casualties and property damage have emerged.

The incident comes amid renewed military escalation along Yemen's northern border.

On November 6, Houthi-affiliated media reported that two people had been injured in shelling targeting the Shada district, with the reports attributing the attack to Saudi forces.

Separately, Yemen's Saba News Agency reported on November 9 that five people were injured in what it described as Saudi shelling of the same district.

The developments come amid intensified fighting between the Houthis and forces aligned with Yemen's internationally recognized government, backed by Saudi Arabia.

Neither the Houthis nor the Saudi-led coalition has issued a comment on the latest reported artillery fire.
