According to Amnesty International: "The targeting of shops, markets, workshops and commercial properties in general has been so widespread and so thorough that it is now difficult to assess the full extent of the destruction and to guess how many shops or workshops stood in the place where now only rubble remains. Such comprehensive destruction suggests that the aim is not the removal of specific targets, but rather the infrastructure and economy of the city, which is known to be a Huthi stronghold. Six members of the Mabkhut family were injured when their home in the centre of Sa’da city was bombed on the morning of 2 June. Ahmad Mabkhut told Amnesty International that he and his family, including his 10-year-old son and three daughters, aged eight, 12 and 13, had been sheltering with relatives in Wadi Alaf, 15 minutes outside Sa’da city, to avoid the frequent bombardments in the city, and had just returned home to stock up on food from their food shop, below their home: “I was downstairs with my son, and my wife and our three daughters were upstairs. With the airstrike the first floor collapsed and they fell to the ground floor and were buried in the rubble. I rushed out to call for help and with the help of my neighbours we dug in the rubble with our hands. We got them out wounded but alive, thank God. But my home and my shop and all the food in my shop were destroyed. The shop was feeding me and my family plus my mother and my two brothers and their families. Now we have no food and no income any more”. It is not clear whether the house was targeted as part of the general targeting of shops and commercial properties or for some other reason." ^[+]
