RIYADH, Jan 22, 2022 (BSS/AFP) - The Saudi-led coalition on Saturday denied carrying out an air strike on a rebel-held prison in northern Yemen that left at least 70 people dead, it said in a statement.

Reports of the targeting of a detention centre in the northern rebel heartland of Saada on Friday are "baseless and unfounded", said coalition spokesman Turki al-Malki, who was quoted by the official Saudi Press Agency.
