Three schoolchildren have drowned during a trip in Yemen’s temporary capital Aden, according to a local newspaper.
The drownings occurred Saturday when the children were swimming off Al Ghadir coast west of Aden, online newspaper Aden Al Ghad reported, citing a local source.
“The school trip ended up in a tragedy after strong waves pushed the children into the sea,” the source added.
