  • Story Text: A U.S. airstrike late Sunday (March 23) on a building in the Aser neighbourhood of Sanaa left at least one person dead and 13 others injured, according to the Houthi-run health ministry.
    Eyewitnesses claimed the casualties were passersby on the street, and the building itself was unoccupied at the time of the strike.
    The building was reduced to a mangled heap of shattered concrete and twisted metal, its floors pancaked and walls crumbled. Blankets, chunks of doors and windows, and other remnants of daily life were scattered across the jagged ruins.
    Emergency responders continued their search for survivors amidst the wreckage while residents of the adjacent building attempted to salvage their belongings.
    The U.S. military has so far released few details about its offensive against Yemen, launched after Houthi threats to renew its attacks on Red Sea shipping over the war in Gaza.
