A number of injuries resulted from at least one alleged U.S. airstrike on Al-Rasoul Al-Aazam (Great Prophet) Hospital for Oncology in Saada, Yemen on March 24, 2025.
The al-Jomhory General Hospital Authority of Sanaa posted a video of a young man being treated in a medical facility, with the caption reporting that the man was being treated at al-Jomhory Hospital after being wounded by a U.S. raid on the “Al-Rasoul Al-Aazam Hospital for Cancer Tumors” in Saada city, a building which was still under construction. A Facebook post from Majd Al-Madani Saada reported “injured” as resulting from the strike, along with additional images of the man being treated in the medical facility, while a post by Harkt al-Arshad mentioned “a number of civilians” as being seriously injured.
A tweet from @a__hamoudi reported “a large number of deaths and injuries” from the attack on Al-Rasoul Al-Aazam Hospital, but as this was not corroborated by other sources and as there were no images/videos in the sources that appeared to correspond to this incident, Airwars has quantified the injury toll as 2-2 .
Harkt al-Arshad posted images that reportedly show the damage caused by the airstrike(s) to the hospital. Damage can be seen in one corner of the building, and multiple walls seem to have been torn out by the strikes. Rubble of cement and other building materials surrounds the outside of the hospital as well.
According to Hamdan Al-Bahm, nine airstrikes hit Saada Governorate, including the one(s) which hit Al-Rasoul Al-Aazam Hospital.
A report by Mwatana for Human Rights, which was published in September 2026 by Brown University's Cost of War project, described the broader humanitarian impact of the attack, explaining that "the Great Prophet Hospital for Oncology (at the time still under construction) represented a major hope for residents of Saada, Amran, and Al-Jawf governorates to access cancer treatment without needing to travel to Sana’a. The hospital consists of a large two-story building and a spacious courtyard, funded by the Omani government at a cost of USD $7 million, and was expected to open soon." The report claimed that the U.S. launched an "attack on March 24, 2025, involving five airstrikes that caused near-total destruction of the facility. A local resident stated: “This hospital is enormous—there is nothing like it in the governorate… it was on the verge of opening and only needed one or two more months to be ready to provide services .”"
Citing an eyewitness, the report also noted that "U.S. attacks on the Al-Rasoul Al-Azam Oncology Hospital in Sa’dah (still under construction) led to the displacement of several families — especially those living near the main road — seeking safety after shrapnel reached their homes and due to the massive explosions caused by the missiles."
Images and videos posted by source @a__hamoudi have not been archived within this incident as it has been identified as relating to different events in Yemen from previous airstrikes.
