Summary

A tragic attack in northern Yemen, where the Houthi-led militia controls much of the area, resulted in the deaths of at least 68 African migrants when an American strike targeted a migrant facility. This comes amid a broader US campaign against the Houthis, which has claimed responsibility for multiple strikes since March and continues to accuse the US of Civilians' casualties without direct evidence beyond recent claims. Houthi officials have criticized the attack as a heinous crime targeting migrants.
