Houthis attribute reported Sanaa-area strikes to Saudi Arabia as casualty toll varies

Deutsche Welle, Sky News and the Times of India all reported that homes in or near the village were struck. The incident was reported on November 7, 2026, although the supplied material does not establish the exact time the strikes occurred. The accounts describe substantial casualties but do not provide the identities of those affected.

The casualty figures remain inconsistent. Reports cited 22 deaths, 25 deaths and at least 27 deaths, while a related India Today report published on November 8 gave a figure of 33. The available evidence does not establish whether the highest figure reflects an updated toll from the same incident or a separate event. Injury estimates also varied, from 30 to more than 30 and 36 people.

The allegation that Saudi Arabia carried out the strikes came from Houthi officials or Houthi-linked sources, and was reported by several outlets. That attribution has not been independently verified in the supplied material. The evidence also does not establish whether Saudi Arabia acted alone or whether a broader coalition was involved.

Sky News, citing a spokesman for the Houthi-run health ministry, reported that most of those killed or wounded were women and children. The Times of India carried a similar characterization. The demographic breakdown remains attributed rather than independently confirmed by the supplied reports.

Saudi Arabia had not commented in the supplied reports, leaving responsibility for the strikes unresolved. The available accounts establish that homes near Sanaa were reportedly hit and that people were killed and injured, but they do not settle the definitive casualty toll, the precise timing of the attack or the identity of the victims.
