Warplanes struck Yemen's capital Sana’a overnight and after daybreak on Monday, residents said, on the fifth day of a campaign by Saudi-led forces against Houthi forces opposed to President Abd Rabbu Mansour Hadi.

One of the residents said the strikes appeared mainly focussed around the diplomatic quarter of the capital.
