36 civilians have been killed in a Saudi-led coalition airstrike at a factory in northern Yemen.

The bottling plant was hit early this morning.

The attack happened in the province of Hajjah.

Resident Issa Ahmed told Reuters that, "the process of recovering bodies is finished now. 

"The corpses of 36 workers, many of them burnt or in pieces, were pulled out after an airstrike hit the plant this morning," he added.

On Friday, air raids killed 65 people - mostly civilians - in Taiz, and last month 65 people including 10 children were killed after a milk factory was hit in western Yemen.

More than 2,300 people are believed to have lost their lives as a result of the ongoing conflict in the country.
