16 Ağustos 2026Al Jazeera

Houthi forces have intensified their military operations in Yemen, launching missile and drone strikes on the cities of Marib and al-Makha. These attacks have resulted in the deaths of at least four individuals and left eight others injured.
The escalation of violence highlights the ongoing instability in the region and the humanitarian crisis affecting civilians.
Yemen has been embroiled in a civil war since 2014, with the Houthi movement fighting against a Saudi-backed government. The conflict has led to one of the world's worst humanitarian crises, with millions displaced and in need of aid.
The recent surge in Houthi attacks underscores the deteriorating security situation in Yemen, as the conflict shows no signs of abating. The targeting of urban areas raises concerns about the impact on civilian populations and the potential for further escalation.
