In disrupting international shipping and drawing U.S. military strikes, Yemen’s Houthi forces are trying to complete a two-decade-long transformation from a ragtag tribal insurgency into their country’s legitimate rulers. Washington and its allies say they have attacked dozens of Houthi targets in the past two days, including on Saturday morning against a radar site. The Houthis’ deputy information minister, Nasr al-Din Amir, reported no material losses or casualties from that strike and called the site defunct.

The stampede took place in the capital of San’a where authorities said a merchant was distributing financial aid at a school for the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, which is coming to an end this week. Each person was to receive 5,000 Yemeni rials, or about $9.

The incident happened late Wednesday in the Yemeni capital, San’a, where authorities said a merchant was distributing financial aid at a school for the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, which is coming to an end this week. Each person was set to receive 5,000 Yemeni rials, equivalent to about $9.
Houthi supporters hold up a Yemeni flag during a protest in San’a. DUBAI—Saudi negotiators met with Iran-backed Houthi rebels in the Yemeni capital of San’a on Sunday to hammer out the final details of a long-term truce that could pave the way toward a lasting peace after eight years of war, officials said. Saudi Arabia and the Houthis have been in direct talks for months, but the prospect of ending Yemen’s seemingly intractable conflict has advanced quickly since last month, when China brokered a detente between Saudi Arabia and Iran. Tehran has backed the Houthis since they took over swaths of Yemen in 2014, and Saudi Arabia led a coalition of Arab nations to dislodge the rebels in a war that created what the United Nations has called the world’s worst humanitarian crisis.
