U.S. Airstrikes in Yemen Result in High Civilian Casualties Among Migrants

Recent U.S. military airstrikes in Yemen have led to the deaths of dozens of African migrants, according to Houthi rebel sources. Reports indicate that an airstrike targeted a detention center in Saada, killing at least 68 migrants. The U.S. military confirmed it has conducted over 800 strikes against Houthi targets since mid-March, but has not disclosed specific details regarding recent operations. The attacks have drawn criticism from various quarters, including human rights organizations like CAIR, calling for a halt to the bombings after this latest loss of life. The situation highlights ongoing tensions in the region, with the Houthis vowing to continue their maritime operations in response to U.S. actions.
