ADEN, Yemen, March 8 (Xinhua) -- Airstrikes launched by fighter jets of the Saudi Arabia-led coalition killed eight Yemeni civilians in the war-torn Arab country on Thursday, a medical official told Xinhua.

The first airstrike was carried out against Shiite Houthi rebels in the western port city of Hodeidah, but mistakenly hit a chicken run and killed three workers at the scene, the local source said on condition of anonymity.

According to the Yemeni medical source, five other civilians were killed when another airstrike targeted a farm and a market in Zabeed area of Hodeidah province.

The Saudi Arabia-led military coalition has intensified military air campaign against Houthi positions in and around the Houthi rebels-held capital Sanaa and other northern provinces since Houthis killed former President Ali Abdullah Saleh on Dec. 4 last year.

The coalition has intervened in the Yemeni conflict in March 2015 to roll back Iranian-aligned Houthi rebels, and backed internationally recognized President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi whom Houthis forced into exile in Saudi Arabia.

The war has killed over 10,000 Yemenis, mostly children, displaced 3 million, and triggered the world's most serious humanitarian catastrophe.
