The Houthi group launched missile and drone attacks on Saudi cities, prompting condemnation from the UN and warnings of escalating conflict. The strikes and cross-border exchanges threaten to unravel years of fragile calm in Yemen, with reports of civilian casualties and mass displacement.
An airstrike by the Saudi-led coalition struck a prison in Houthi-controlled Al-Jawf province, Yemen, leaving women, children, and dozens of inmates trapped under rubble. The Houthis vowed retaliation, while the UN envoy warned that escalating hostilities could derail fragile ceasefire efforts and worsen civilian suffering.
