UN condemns Saudi-led airstrike on Yemen prison
The UN has condemned an airstrike by a Saudi-led coalition on a Yemen detention centre that has killed More Than 70 people.

Houthi-run television showed pictures from The Scene of men clearing debris with their hands and of wounded at a local hospital. MSF said one hospital had received More Than 200 casualties.
" There are many bodies still at The Scene of the Air Strike , many Missing People , " Ahmed Mahat, MSF chief in Yemen, told AFP news agency. " It is impossible to know how many people have been killed. It seems to have been a horrific act of violence.
Further south, three children were killed as they were playing football when an Air Strike hit a telecommunications facility in The Rebel -held port city of Hudaydah, Save The Children aid agency said.
There was a near countrywide internet outage around the same time, which Houthi media blamed on The Attack on the telecommunications site.
Saudi Arabia said The Coalition had carried out air strikes in Hudaydah but did not mention The Attack in Saada.
