Sana'a: On August 30, US-Saudi-Emirati aggression aircraft conducted airstrikes across various regions in Yemen, leading to significant civilian casualties and destruction. The assaults resulted in the deaths of dozens of innocent people, including women and children.
According to Yemen News Agency, on this day in 2015, 19 civilians were killed and 11 injured during four airstrikes on a water factory in Abs City, Hajjah Governorate. The technical institute in the city also faced multiple airstrikes.

In Sana'a Governorate, airstrikes on residential areas led to the destruction of homes and injuries to 17 individuals. In Marib and Ibb Governorates, similar devastation was reported with homes destroyed and civilians injured.

Airstrikes continued to target civilian homes and infrastructure, leading to significant property damage across several regions, including Sana'a, Saada, and Hajjah Governorates.
