IranPress/Middle East: Thousands of Yemenis took part in funeral ceremony which held for martyr children in Sa'da, Yemen.
Huge crowds have gathered in Sa’ada to bury dozens of children recently slain during a Saudi airstrike on a school bus in northwestern Yemen.
A funeral procession was held in Sa’ada’s provincial capital of the same name on Monday, with mourners having come from various places across the country.
Footage showed a long convoy of vehicles that carried the bodies of the victims as participants carried pictures of the attack and chanted slogans against Saudi Arabia.
According to an Iran Press report, on Thursday Saudi jet fighters attacked a bus full of Yemeni children in the town of "Zahyan" in Sa'da province in northern Yemen.
Yemeni medical sources announced that at least 39 civilians have been killed, some of them children, and 51 others have been wounded when Saudi warplanes attacked the town of "Zahyan" in northern Yemen.
Saudi Arabia and its allies launched the war on Yemen in March 2015 to reinstall the former Saudi-backed Hadi regime and crush the Houthi movement.
The Yemeni Ministry of Human Rights announced in a statement on March 25 that the war had left 600,000 civilians dead and injured until then. The war and an accompanying blockade have also caused famine across Yemen.
