The head of the World Health Organisation has described being caught up in Israeli air strikes at Sanaa airport which killed at least six people.

Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus told 蜜芽传媒 Radio 4's Today programme about the moment the explosions hit as he was talking to a plane at Yemen's international airport on Thursday.

The Israeli Defence Force has said it was targeting military infrastructure at the airport after months of Houthi attacks on Israel.

But Dr Ghebreyesus said Israel had to be careful not to attack civilian installations.
