‘Houthi missile attack’ kills at least 17 in Yemen’s Marib

Al Jazeera  

Government blames Houthis for attack on petrol station as the group says it only struck a military camp and welcomes investigation into civilian casualties. At least 17 people, including a five-year-old girl, have been killed after a ballistic missile targeted the Yemeni city of Marib in an attack the government blamed on the Houthi rebels. Yemen has been embroiled in a civil war since 2014, when the Houthis swept across much of the north and seized the capital, Sanaa, forcing the internationally recognised government into exile. Saturday’s attack came just a day after the US special envoy for Yemen, Tim Lenderking, accused the Houthis of failing to try to reach an urgently needed ceasefire. “We arrived in Sanaa accompanied with a delegation from the Omani Sultanate office in an attempt to prompt the process of settling the humanitarian crisis, as well as the peace process as it serves the nation’s interest and the neighbouring countries interests,” Abdul-Salam said.
