Yemeni clashes kill 140 in a day
The article discusses fierce clashes that broke out in Yemen between government forces and the Houthis, resulting in the death of over 140 people in less than a day, with hostilities escalating since the Thursday attack. The fighting centers on control of strategic points leading to the Red Sea, particularly the al-Mokha area and the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, as the Houthis advance toward the coast and cut off key supply routes, threatening vital waterways. These operations are causing widespread displacement of civilians and worsening humanitarian conditions, amid field efforts by government forces to recapture positions and halt the Houthis' progress. The escalation reflects the breakdown of the ceasefire between the two sides since 2022 and rising regional tensions in the area.
