Houthi Official Says Saudi Airstrikes Leave 3 Dead, and Other Mideast Developments

Human Rights Watch says Houthi attacks on commercial vessels between Jul. 20 and Aug. 24 could amount to war crimes.

  • On Tuesday, a Houthi official claimed Saudi airstrikes killed three people, including two children, in Yemen's Taiz province. The Associated Press could not independently verify the claim.
  • Human Rights Watch accused Houthi rebels of possible war crimes, with researcher Niku Jafarnia stating, "attacks on civilian crews carried out deliberately or recklessly are war crimes."
  • The Houthis claimed their attacks on Saudi-linked shipping are retaliation for a coalition blockade, having targeted nine vessels including two Saudi-flagged, one Tanzania-flagged, and one Dominica-flagged ship.
  • Renewed fighting threatens shipping through the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, a route now critical following disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz since the United States launched its war against Iran.
  • Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi will visit China on Wednesday to meet with Foreign Minister Wang Yi, while the Houthi capture of Mokha continues pressuring global oil supplies.
