An airstrike by the Saudi-led coalition hit a wedding party in northern Yemen, killing at least 20 people, health officials said, as harrowing images emerged on social media of the deadly bombing, the third to hit Yemeni civilians since the weekend.

Khaled al-Nadhri, the top health official in the northern province of Hajja, told the Associated Press that most of the dead were women and children who were gathered in one of the tents set up for the wedding party in the district of Bani Qayis. He said the bride was among the dead.

The hospital chief, Mohammed al-Sawmali, said the groom and 45 of the wounded were brought to the local hospital. Health authorities appealed for people to donate blood.

Not a word of condemnation from the West - not one fucking word

1. The absolutely most dangerous thing a Muslim can do is to go to a wedding. The US in Afghanistan...

and Iraq have killed quite a few people attending weddings, too.

2. K&R

Of course nothing has been said. Trump wouldn't want to alienate his best buddies in the ME.

Just sickening and tragic. I wonder if they intentionally went after the women and children. What cowards!

3. Kind of like a a certain other unmentionable place bordering Israel

Everything is fine. Move along. Nothing to see here folks!
