Dated the day this page was built. The link always leads to this event, even after the stories are regrouped.
Yemen’s internationally recognised government says the Houthis have launched missiles at the airport in Aden, a day after carrying out a deadly attack targeting the presidential palace in the port city.
What happened
The outlets' own sentences, most widely reported first. Hover one for who reported it.
Yemen has been mired in conflict since the Houthis seized the capital Sanaa in 2014, prompting a Saudi-led military intervention the following year.
The Houthis' military spokesman, Yahya Sarea, said they struck "the Saudi enemy's military operations headquarters in Aden".
Five people have been killed and 16 injured after the Houthis attacked the presidential palace in Aden, the seat of Yemen's Saudi-backed and internationally recognised government.
A Saudi-led military intervention the following year led to a bloody stalemate before a 2022 truce that held until this year.
