Yemeni medics say they pull at least 130 bodies from the rubble of a rebel-run detention centre that was hit earlier this month by Saudi-led coalition air strikes
People inspect the rubble at a Houthi detention centre destroyed by Saudi-led air strikes in Dhamar province, southwestern Yemen, Sept. 1, 2019.
The attack was one of the deadliest in more than four years of war in Yemen that have claimed tens of thousands of lives, thrust millions to the brink of famine and spawned the world's worst humanitarian crisis. Bashir al Dawrani, a spokesman for the Yemeni Red Crescent, told The Associated Press that the death toll has yet to be confirmed as search efforts are ongoing for more bodies at the site in the Dhamar province.
Houthi and medical officials have said the detention centre was holding at least 170 people when it was hit. The detainees were captured forces loyal to Yemen's internationally recognised government as well as civilians who had been arrested for criticising the Houthis in recent years.
