At least 18 people were killed in an attack by the Iran-aligned Houthi movement on a Yemeni government military training camp in Yemen’s Shabwa province, four government and medical sources told Reuters.
The government sources said the attack, which targeted soldiers during a morning training, was carried out using three ballistic missiles.
Fighting between the Saudi-led coalition backing Yemen’s internationally recognised government and the Houthis, who control the capital Sanaa and much of the north, has escalated in recent weeks, becoming another front in the wider regional conflict that began with US and Israeli strikes on Iran in late February.
