Doctors Without Borders Hospital in Yemen Destroyed by Airstrike

Doctors Without Borders said a hospital it runs in Yemen was destroyed by Saudi airstrikes — the second attack this month on the medical charity.

The aid group — also known as Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF) — said "several" airstrikes carried out by the Saudi-led coalition struck its facility in Saada Province beginning at around 10:30 p.m. Monday.

"Hospital staff and two patients managed to escape before subsequent airstrikes occurred over a two-hour period," it said in a statement. "One staff member was slightly injured while escaping."
