Houthi Forces Kill Civilians and Soldiers in Missile Strikes Across Yemen

Yemeni officials reported that missile strikes on Marib killed two civilians and injured 14 others. These attacks on military positions and residential areas mark a significant escalation in the conflict. Rebels also launched drones and missiles at southern Saudi Arabia, killing at least 30 soldiers. The rebel group claimed responsibility for the strikes, which also targeted Saudi tankers in the Red Sea. These operations have increased concerns regarding a wider regional war involving Iran-backed groups. Meanwhile, Cruz stated that Trump must provide arms to Iranian protesters to pressure the regime in Tehran.
