State-run news agency Saba gave the same death toll, but reported that 22 people were wounded in unguided rocket strikes it blamed on the Iran-allied rebels.
The war in Yemen pitches the internationally recognised government of Abedrabbo Mansour Hadi and a Saudi-led coalition against the Huthi fighters.
The conflict has left nearly 10 000 people dead and more than 55 000 wounded, according to the World Health Organization.
More than 2 200 others have died from cholera, and millions are on the verge of famine in what the United Nations says is the world’s gravest humanitarian crisis.
