Houthi rebels strike a government military camp in southern Yemen, killing at least 20 fighters
Government officials said three ballistic missiles struck soldiers during morning training, wounding about two dozen and deepening the fighting after a 2022 truce collapsed.
- Iran-Backed Houthi rebels attacked the al-Alam military camp in Yemen’s southern Shabwa province on Monday, killing at least 20 government soldiers, according to Yemeni military officials.
- The attackers launched ballistic missiles at the camp, leaving at least two dozen troops wounded, officials from Yemen’s internationally recognised government reported.
- The strike was among the deadliest incidents in a recent escalation of fighting between Houthi rebels and forces loyal to Yemen’s Saudi-backed government.
- The renewed violence has undermined the 2022 ceasefire that had largely halted fighting in Yemen’s prolonged civil war, amid rising tensions linked to the wider Iran-US conflict.
- The attack followed reported Saudi-led airstrikes in the Houthi-controlled northern province of Saada on Sunday, which the Houthi-run Health Ministry said killed at least nine people, including five children and two women.
