DUBAI: One Yemeni was killed and two others wounded in shelling carried out by the Iranian-backed Houthi militia on neighborhoods east of Yemen’s Taiz, state news agency Saba news reported.
Yemen’s internationally recognized government has been fighting the Iran-allied insurgents since 2014, when the Houthis seized much of the north including the capital Sanaa.
Tens of thousands of people have been killed in the Yemen conflict, which the United Nations has described as the world’s worst humanitarian crisis.
