    At least 20 people have reportedly been killed and 41 more wounded after Houthis launched rocket strikes on Yemen's second-largest city, Aden.

    Yemen's Houthis staged a series of rocket strikes on a residential district of the country's second-largest city, Aden, leaving at least 20 people dead and 41 others injured, according to several media reports.

    "Many of the wounded are in serious condition," a medical source was quoted by the news agency AFP as saying.

    It was reported that the Al-Mansura district, held by loyalists of fugitive President Abd Rabbo Mansour Hadi, was pounded with Houthi rockets in the early hours of Monday.
