Airstrike Kills Three Children in Yemen; Journalist Injured in West Bank Attack
An airstrike in Yemen's Dhamar province killed three children and wounded others, with Iranian-backed Houthi rebels blaming Saudi Arabia, which has not commented. The Houthis report 124 deaths since fighting resumed in September. Separately, Washington Post photographer Heidi Levine underwent surgery after Israeli settlers attacked her in the occupied West Bank, causing severe injuries. The settlers also reportedly attacked Palestinian villages, damaging property amid the region's olive harvest season.
