A Yemeni hospital run by the medical aid group Medecins Sans Frontieres (Doctors Without Borders) has been hit by Saudi-led air strikes.
An “MSF facility in Saada, Yemen was hit by several airstrikes last night with patients and staff inside the facility,” the group tweeted.

The Haidan Health Center was the only hospital operating in Haidan, a town that’s seen heavy attacks by the coalition. Doctors Without Borders says on its website the organization has been supporting the facility with an ER, referral system and medications.

@StefZannini@MSF thankful there were no casualties – was it shut at that time? And is it completely destroyed now or still functional?

This is the second time this month that an Medecins Sans Frontieres facility has been hit. On October 3rd a MSF hospital in the Afghan city of Kunduz was bombed by US forces.
