2 killed in artillery shelling in Yemen's Hodeidah: medics

Two women were killed on Wednesday morning when artillery shelling hit a residential neighborhood in Yemen's Red Sea port city of Hodeidah, medics said.
Five others, including a child, were wounded in the shelling on al-Rabasah neighborhood in the southern part of the city, the medics in Althawra hospital said.
Hodeidah has seen a shaky cease-fire between the government forces and the Houthi militia since both sides reached a UN-sponsored truce agreement in Stockholm in December 2018.
The port city is under the control of the Houthis, while the government forces have advanced to the southern districts.
Yemen has been mired in civil war since late 2014, when the Iran-backed Houthi rebels seized control of much of the country's north and forced the internationally-recognized government of President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi out of the capital Sanaa.
