Marib strikes raise stakes as UN warns Yemen could widen conflict

Yemen’s Iran-aligned Houthis struck displacement camps in Marib with missiles and drones, killing two and wounding 14, after deadly strikes in Marib and Hadramawt; the group claimed targeting Saudi-backed forces at the Sahn al-Jinn camp, though Reuters could not independently verify those claims. UN Special Envoy Hans Grundberg warned the renewed violence—along with attacks on Red Sea shipping—puts Yemen at the greatest risk of a wider conflict since the 2022 truce and urged restraint and UN-facilitated negotiations.

Houthi missiles and drones struck Yemeni government military camps in Hadramout and Marib, killing at least 30 soldiers and wounding 15, marking the deadliest escalation in years.

Gaza medical warehouses hit as Israeli strikes kill seven, deepening health crisis

Israeli airstrikes across Gaza killed at least seven Palestinians and hit medicine warehouses beside Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir el-Balah, destroying essential medicines and supplies and worsening a fragile healthcare system. Attacks also struck sites in Gaza City and al-Mawasi, with Gaza’s Health Ministry reporting 7 dead and 76 wounded in 48 hours, bringing the ceasefire toll to about 1,222 killed and roughly 73,349 killed overall since October 2023. Israel says it targeted Hamas depots overnight amid ongoing ceasefire disputes and broader disarmament talks.

Iran-US clash widens as strikes, regional attacks intensify

The US-Iran confrontation intensifies as the U.S. conducts its eighth straight night of strikes on Iran while Tehran and allied forces volley attacks across the region, from Jordan and Kuwait to Bahrain. Two US service members were killed in Jordan, with additional casualties and ongoing threats reported. Attacks have targeted critical infrastructure such as desalination plants and a nuclear site, prompting the IAEA to review a reported strike on the Darkhovin plant. With diplomacy faltering, the risk of a broader regional war around the Strait of Hormuz is rising.

Iranian strikes in Jordan leave US troops dead and missing, as missiles intercepted

Two US service members were killed and one is missing after Iranian ballistic missile and drone attacks in Jordan; four service members were evacuated to Jordanian hospitals and discharged, with others suffering minor injuries. Jordan intercepted about 10 missiles. The US has conducted a seventh consecutive night of strikes on Iran, and the broader conflict’s death toll has risen to 16 after a Navy pilot previously missing was declared dead. Officials did not disclose the identities of the fallen or where in Jordan the attack occurred, withholding details pending next-of-kin notifications.

100 Days In: US-Israel War on Iran Sparks Regional Havoc and a Stalled Ceasefire

At 100 days, the US-Israel campaign against Iran has devolved into a grinding stalemate despite a Pakistan-brokered ceasefire; the Strait of Hormuz remains largely closed, and casualties continue to mount across Iran and Lebanon, with Iran’s deaths at least 3,468 and Lebanon’s at least 3,593, plus fatalities in Israel (26) and US forces (13) and over 150 elsewhere in the region, while more than a million people in Lebanon have been displaced and the fighting expands to additional fronts.

Aid cuts and conflict impede Ebola response in Congo and Uganda

Aid cuts and ongoing conflict are hampering surveillance and response to an Ebola outbreak across eastern Congo and Uganda, with at least 395 suspected cases and more than 100 deaths, figures likely higher due to weak surveillance. The Bundibugyo strain has no approved vaccines or treatments; while European funding has supported rapid sequencing and supplies, shrinking foreign aid threatens containment amid global health funding tensions.
