‘We Sleep Afraid, We Wake Up Afraid’: A Child’s Life in Yemen
The article provides a harrowing account of life in Yemen through the eyes of Mohammed al-Asaadi, a father of four and a Unicef communications worker. It highlights the daily fears and struggles faced by his children due to the ongoing conflict between Iranian-backed rebels and Saudi Arabia. The narrative underscores the psychological and physical toll of the war on Yemeni children, who live in constant fear of bombings and have their education and daily lives disrupted.

Suicide Car Bomb Strikes Shiites in Yemen
A suicide car bomb targeted a convoy of civilians in northwestern Yemen, killing 17 members of the Houthi clan and wounding 5. The attack occurred as they traveled to a Shiite ceremony in Al Jawf Province. Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula is suspected, marking a potential new conflict between the group and the Houthis, both traditional opponents of the Yemeni government. The government condemned the attack, and the incident adds to the challenges faced by Yemen, including a secessionist movement in the south and pressure from the US and Europe to address the local Qaeda group's activities.
2 Kidnapped U.S. Tourists Released in Yemen
Two American tourists kidnapped in Yemen were released after President Ali Abdullah Saleh agreed to free a prisoner, amidst a backdrop of a botched airstrike by the government that killed a local official and incited further violence. The airstrike, which failed to harm its intended target, Al Qaeda leader Mohammed Saeed Jardan, led to armed tribesmen attacking government offices and an oil pipeline, resulting in several deaths and a blackout in parts of the country. Tribal leaders offered a truce and demanded an investigation, threatening talks with security officials or action against the government if the U.S. was found to be involved.
