Houthi missile strike on Yemen camp kills 50 security recruits, local authorities say

More than 50 security personnel have been killed and 200 injured in a Houthi missile strike on a camp in Yemen's central province of Shabwa, local authorities say. A spokesman for the Saudi-backed Yemeni armed forces said the Iran-backed group launched three ballistic missiles at al-Alam camp near Ataq city, which was being used as a training centre for recruits to the security forces and police. The head of Yemen's Presidential Leadership Council, Rashad al-Alimi, condemned what he called the "criminal attack" and promised a "firm response". The Houthis' military spokesman said they had targeted "Saudi enemy concentrations". Yemen's devastating civil war has flared up in recent months.
