Fresh reports from Sanaa, Yemen reveal that U.S. air strikes on a crowded market have tragically claimed 12 lives and injured at least 30 people. The attack struck the well-known Farwah market in the bustling Shu'ub neighborhood on Sunday evening, leaving the city in shock. 😔
Rescue teams are working through the rubble, searching for survivors amid a series of strikes that have hit various locations in and around Sanaa. This incident follows another devastating assault on the Ras Isa fuel port in western Yemen, which resulted in significant casualties and infrastructural damage.
The Houthis, who control much of northern Yemen, claim that their actions aim to pressure U.S.-backed Israel to ease its offensive in the Gaza Strip and facilitate humanitarian aid. For a generation that’s always connected and aware of global shifts, this unfolding situation is a stark reminder of how geopolitical tensions directly impact everyday lives.
Stay tuned as we continue to monitor this developing story and its broader implications on regional stability.
