On Sunday evening, there were reports of air strikes (that’s when planes drop bombs) in Yemen’s capital city, Sanaa. According to a group called the Houthis, 12 people were killed and at least 30 were injured 😞.
Who Are the Houthis?
The Houthis are a group of people in Yemen who control parts of the country. They have been in conflict with other groups and countries for several years.

Rescue teams are still working to help people who were hurt or trapped. It’s a very sad situation, and many families are affected.
Why Did This Happen?
The Houthis say that the air strikes were carried out by the United States 🇺🇸. They believe it’s because of conflicts involving Israel 🇮🇱 and the situation in the Middle East.
What Does This Mean?
