Yemen: Over 50 Killed in Houthi Attack
More than 50 people were killed and over 200 injured in a missile attack carried out by the Houthis on a government camp in Shabwah Province in central Yemen. The rebels targeted the Al-Elm military camp, according to local authorities. Reports indicate that the attack was launched using three ballistic missiles during training exercises for new recruits, resulting in the death of 53 recruits and injuries to more than 200, some of them in critical condition who were transferred to hospitals in Hadramout and Aden. The Houthis claimed responsibility for the attack, stating that it targeted Saudi troop mobilizations at a camp managed by Saudi officers, emphasizing that the operation is part of their military escalation against the Yemeni government forces. This comes amid regional and international tensions, as Washington issued warnings to its citizens in the Middle East about security risks, with ongoing Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia and American interests in the region. The conflict in Yemen has also escalated, leading to the collapse of the ceasefire in 2022 and increasing military tensions in the Red Sea and Bab el-Mandeb Strait. Additionally, Gulf foreign ministers condemned Iran’s ongoing attacks using missiles and drones, demanding accountability and the continued freedom of navigation in vital waterways.
