Houthis reportedly kill six in first deadly attack since start of Iran war
In a tragic turn of events, the Houthi rebels have reportedly carried out a deadly attack, resulting in the deaths of six individuals. The incident took place in the war-torn region of Yemen, specifically in the city of Marib, on Monday afternoon. Those killed in the attack were reportedly civilians, with no immediate information available on their identities.
The Houthi rebels, who have been engaged in a protracted conflict with the Yemeni government forces, have not issued any official statement regarding the attack. However, it is speculated that the recent escalation in violence could be linked to the ongoing conflict between Iran and Saudi Arabia, with Yemen serving as a battleground for their proxy war.
On the other hand, the Yemeni government has condemned the attack, labeling it as a cowardly act of violence against innocent civilians. The government officials have called for international intervention to curb the Houthis’ aggression and restore peace in the region.
This incident marks the first deadly attack by the Houthi rebels since the start of the conflict between Iran and Saudi Arabia, raising concerns about the escalating violence in Yemen. As the situation continues to unfold, it remains critical for all parties involved to prioritize the safety and well-being of the civilians caught in the crossfire.
