Two Yemeni children were killed on Thursday when a landmine exploded in the western coastal city of Hudaydah, said an observatory for documenting mines victims.
The Yemeni Landmine Monitor said Muhammad Omar Mujahisi and Muhammad Ali Mujahisi were killed while they were grazing livestock in the village of al-Jaruba.
The observatory did not name any organization responsible for planting the mine, but the government had previously accused Houthi rebels of planting thousands of mines in areas under their control.
The mines have led to deaths and injuries of dozens of civilians in Hudaydah in recent years, according to official and unofficial human rights data.
