An airstrike in Yemen's Saada governorate has reportedly resulted in the deaths of at least 30 African migrants, as confirmed by the al-Masirah satellite news channel operated by the Houthi rebels. The US military has not confirmed conducting the strike, and independent verification is pending.

According to al-Masirah, the strike targeted a prison housing around 100 inmates, leading to a significant number of casualties. Graphic footage broadcast by the channel depicted several fatalities and injuries at the site.

The incident has occurred in a region controlled by Houthi forces, adding to the ongoing turmoil in Yemen. The lack of confirmation by US military officials leaves many questions unanswered regarding responsibility for the attack.
